Hello, I just wanted to let everyone know that I created a simple logging library for D. I wrote it as I wanted to debug my programs without having to deal with standard output and have used it for several little coding adventures. https://launchpad.net/dlogger The main features are: - Supports trace, info, dbug (debug), error, and fatal log errors. - Logging levels can be changed while the program is running - Is thread safe (hopefully) - If compiled with -version=nologger, it's like you never included it. Besides satisfying my own needs, I felt that a logging library of some sort would be good for Phobos, hence why I'm making this available. Please report any issues/suggestions to the launchpad site. Enjoy! Casey

I think it's because I don't have any "releases" yet.If that's the case, that's fine with me. It's not a huge change to the code. Based on recent experience, I prefer having a logger in unless I explicitly say I don't want it. It's great for debugging apps when you don't want to annoy your user with the details or if it's a server.

For the logger interface, I think it's enough to use an output stream interface with only void put(in char[]) defined. AndreiSpecifically, do you mean that I should be doing all my writes using a wrapper around std.file? I just want to make sure that I do it right this time. I went with std.stream as I felt that buffered output would minimize the performance impact of writing out the file system and since it was there...well... Regardless, if that is the case, then that's fine. If I'm missing something, I'd like to know before I go down the wrong road again. Thanks. Casey

Some loggers support this functionality(Log4j, Boost.log, etc...). I once wrote a logger. My logger is here. http://www.bitbucket.org/repeatedly/scrap/src/tip/logger.d This logger supports above features(Rotation is file-size only). Hope this helps.

Granted, I've been toying with some server code, but even then I don't have it running very long. I first need to focus on replacing std.stream for writing to the logfile. Thanks.
