Is this forum/library alive?

Hi All,
I have posted a message a month ago - no response....
I just want to know, is there any other forum where there is more traffic,
or if this library is dead :-(
Any comment will be appreciated...
Thanks,
Ron.

Re: Is this forum/library alive?

Posted by Matthew Wilson <ma...@synesis.com.au>.
I don't know if this is the done thing or not, but since the subject of moribundity and other libraries has come up, I'd like to draw people's attention to a new logging _API_ library that myself and a colleague have recently released to the public domain: Pantheios (http://pantheios.sourceforge.net/).

As the website explains, this comes with its own basic logging transport facilities. But it is really a flexible/extensible, 100% type-safe, and very efficient (see http://pantheios.sourceforge.net/performance.html) layer that can be used over the rich transport facilities of any existing logging library, including log4cxx or log4cpp.

We've an article coming out soon on The C++ Source (http://artima.com/cppsource/) which will introduce it to the C++ world, so to speak. But since the subject's been raised in this forum, I thought I'd give it a mention now. 

There're two examples in which log4cxx (examples/cpp/example_cpp_wrap_3pty_log_lib) and log4cplus (examples/cpp/example_cpp_wrap_log4cplus) are wrapped. If anyone with particular expertise with log4cxx, log4cplus and log4cpp would be willing to lend a hand in producing actual bindings to these libraries, we'd be very grateful. (Note: you can still use NDC's and all that stuff from within application code, so Pantheios+log4XYZ gives the best of both worlds.)


Thanks for listening.

  Hello,

   

  Try this link : http://sourceforge.net/projects/log4cpp/

   

  The last release date is July 2005.

   

  There is about 50 downloads per day.

   

  There are a lot of missing features such as the AsyncAppender. But at least, what you'll find there works better than log4cxx.

   

  The code is also much simpler to understand. Few days and you should understand all the basics. Just keep in mind that a logger in log4cxx is called a category in log4cpp. Besides that, if you're familiar with log4cxx, you should find you way. The interface is still using dumb pointer (as opposed to smart pointers) but I can live with that.

   

  regards

   

  Stephane

  Hi Stephane,

  Does the log4cpp have all the features of log4cxx?
  It seems that the last version of log4cpp is back in 2002, does it have users, or is it dead as well?

  Thanks!
  Ron.
