Isn't this what the loglevel 6 (E_USR) was intended for? An absract of changes done to the system which is also loged into a separate file.
Yes.
The basic requirement is simple: better logging. Naturally the design is simple too: a function for the better logging. (I put it into a namespace to make room for its brother, a commit message from the admin.) E_USR and analogically y2user(fmt, ...) seems to imply the constraints shared by the other logging functions: the same log file, the same format...
Log file and format should be possible to change. The problem with ALog::Item is that it doesn't understand %1 syntax. Always using sformat is clumsy. Also ALog::Item is not accessible from C++ (in case anybody needs that). Access from libstorage seems idealistic since libstorage uses limal/blocxx stuff for logging. ciao Arvin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
