A C++17 logging framework

Nealog

Nealog is a logging framework supporting C++17. It is developed to support multithreading out of the box and can be used headeronly or build as a static library.

This is made possible by structuring the code in header files and only including those inside the cpp files used for compiling for static libs (technique shamelessly copied from spdlog).

Compile

Neolog uses CMake as build generation tool.

cmake -G Ninja -B build

For using as headeronly library build with Cmake option NEALOG_HEADERONLY=ON which is turned off by default.

cmake -G Ninja -DNEALOG_HEADERONLY=ON -B build

Link against

To link against the static lib use the target nealog.

  add_executable(myproject <SOURCES>)
  target_link_libraries(myproject PUBLIC nealog)

To link against the headeronly lib use the target nealog::headeronly.

  add_executable(myproject <SOURCES>)
  target_link_libraries(myproject PUBLIC nealog::headeronly)
