Detailed Description

Logger class contains static methods to deal with log configuration.

Member Function Documentation

static void Pothos::System::Logger::forwardStdIoToLogging ( const std::string &  source )

static

Redirect standard IO to the logging facility. This allows the user to capture standard IO debug messages from subprocesses and servers that would otherwise be lost. Because the default logging output directs to standard IO, it is recommended to first change the default logging channel. For example, startSyslogForwarding() will direct logs to UDP.

Parameters

source

the repoted source of the forwarded log messages

static void Pothos::System::Logger::setupDefaultLogging ( void  )

static

Setup default logging for this process. The default logger will log all non-informational logs to the console. The logger can be configured with the following environment vars: POTHOS_LOG_LEVEL - what level to display logs (default notice) POTHOS_LOG_CHANNEL - how to display the logs (default color) POTHOS_LOG_FILE - log file path if POTHOS_LOG_CHANNEL=file specified

static void Pothos::System::Logger::startSyslogForwarding ( const std::string &  addr )

static

Start syslog forwarding to the given address.

Parameters

addr	the log destination in host:port format

static std::string Pothos::System::Logger::startSyslogListener ( void  )

static

Start a listener for syslog messages from other processes. The log messages will be forwarded to the default logger.

Returns

the port that this process is listening

static void Pothos::System::Logger::stopSyslogForwarding ( void  )

static

Stop all syslog forwarding setup by startSyslogForwarding().

static void Pothos::System::Logger::stopSyslogListener ( void  )

static

Stop the syslog listener service.
