Detailed Description

SyslogAppender sends LoggingEvents to the local syslog system.

Definition at line 25 of file SyslogAppender.hh.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

log4cpp::SyslogAppender::SyslogAppender	(	const std::string &	name,
		const std::string &	syslogName,
		int	facility = LOG_USER
	)

Instantiate a SyslogAppender with given name and name and facility for syslog. Note that the C syslog API is process global, so instantion of a second SyslogAppender will 'overwrite' the syslog name of the first.

Parameters

name	The name of the Appender
syslogName	The ident parameter in the openlog(3) call.
facility	The syslog facility to log to. Defaults to LOG_USER.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void log4cpp::SyslogAppender::_append ( const LoggingEvent &  event )

protectedvirtual

Sends a LoggingEvent to syslog.

Parameters

event

the LoggingEvent to log.

Implements log4cpp::AppenderSkeleton.

virtual void log4cpp::SyslogAppender::close ( )

virtual

Calls closelog(3) to close the syslog file descriptor.

Implements log4cpp::AppenderSkeleton.

virtual void log4cpp::SyslogAppender::open ( )

protectedvirtual

Calls openlog(3).

virtual bool log4cpp::SyslogAppender::reopen ( )

virtual

Calls closelog(3) and openlog(3).

Reimplemented from log4cpp::AppenderSkeleton.

static int log4cpp::SyslogAppender::toSyslogPriority ( Priority::Value  priority )

static

Translates a log4cpp priority to a syslog priority

Parameters

priority

The log4cpp priority.

Returns

the syslog priority.
