Pantheios is an Open Source C/C++ Logging API library, offering an optimal
combination of 100% type-safety, efficiency, genericity and extensibility. It
is simple to use and extend, highly-portable (platform and
compiler-independent) and, best of all, it upholds the C tradition of you only
pay for what you use.


Pantheios supports logging of message statements of arbitrary complexity,
consisting of heterogeneous types.


Pantheios supports filtering of log messages based on severity level including
(but not limited to) the eight levels defined by the
SysLog protocol.


Pantheios supports back-end output, individually and in combination, to
stderr/stdout, SysLog (including a custom implementation of
the SysLog protocol for Windows), Windows debugger, Windows event log, COM
Error Object, Speech, or any custom back-end extension
you care to write. Importantly, Pantheios is readily extended to use the
existing transport mechanisms of feature-rich logging
libraries such as ACE, log4cpp, log4cplus, log4cxx.


Pantheios does not contain any compiler-specific or platform-specific
constructs. It supports UNIX (including Linux and Mac OS-X),
and Windows, and should work with any operating system. It is known to be
compatible with Borland (5.5.1+), Comeau (4.3.3+), Digital
Mars (8.45+), GCC (3.2+), Intel (6+), Metrowerks (8+), Microsoft Visual C++
(5.0+), and should work with any reasonably modern C++
compiler.


Pantheios is completely free and includes source released under a BSD-style
license. Commercial customisations (of front-/back-ends
are provided by Synesis Software Pty Ltd; http://synesis.com.au/contact.html)


Release 1.0.1 beta 172 incorporates:
 * enhanced pantheios::integer inserter class, adding 3-parameter ctors to
remove ambiguity between width and format
 * many changes forming part of the groundwork for future widestring support
