The best way to think about Log4CF is as a more advanced <cflog> tag. It's main features include:
- Seamless integration into the CF admin and existing log reader. - Ability to specify log messages as the body of the tag rather than the attribute. - Ability to set applications' "log level" which indicates which log messages are observed and which are ignored. This allows you to keep logging messages in your application all the time (rather than just during development, since you can turn them off) and to dynamically change your applications verbosity through the ColdFusion administrator. - Ability the email log messages in addition to appending them to the log file. Hope this helps. Christian On Friday, August 8, 2003, at 06:25 PM, Ciliotta, Mario wrote: > HI, > > I was wondering if any has used the Log4CF that is part of DRK4.
