Hence, once can do: <p> <code><pre> slog("mydaemon", SLOG_DAEMON, SLOG_EMERGENCY) << I just died << endl; </pre></code> <p> or things like: <p> <code><pre> slog("mydaemon", SLOG_DAEMON); slog(SLOG_INFO) << "daemon initalized" << endl; </pre></code> <p> The intent is to be as common-place and as convenient to use as the stderr based clog facility found in C++, and this is especially useful for C++ daemons. <p> <dl compact><dt><b> Author: </b><dd> David Sugar <<a href="mailto:dyfet@ostel.com">dyfet@ostel.com</a>> </dl> <p> <hr><h2>Constructor & Destructor Documentation</h2> <a
