In our project now we using log4cxx, but those library don't develope some years, also we have some problems with it. Could you advise some library for logging in C++. Library must support multithreade logging, system-log. Also it'll be good if it support logging via << operator. Also lib license must be very democracy - like boost, apache etc Crossplatform support. Must support linux, windows. Better if it support solaris, aix, hp-ux, but it's not necessary.
boost::log is probably the most versatile and well-written logging library I've seen. It's pretty complicated but really genius at the same time. And it does everything you can think of and then some more.
I use the glog library, by google (because I could not install Boost.Log easily). It is both simple to use and powerfull.
We use log4cplus in our company, it provides a complex hierarchical logging system (based on log4j). It seems to have everything you are asking for. It provides many appenders (I personally choose this library for the rolling files linux/windows and linux Syslog).
The library is quite simple to compile and deploy on both linux & windows And do the job no problem so far (about 4 years in production).
Only drawback, the lack of documentation but the code it quite self-explanatory. Good new is you could go to the log4j documentation page to understand how configurators/patterns/etc works ...
