<<TableOfContents>>

== Overview ==

This class offers methods useful to write and manage ordinary ANSI log files. In case any non-ANSI chars are part of a message, these characters are replaced by question marks.

By default, the class creates a log file as an ordinary ANSI file with the name "yyyymmdd.txt". When a new day puts in an appearance, this file is closed and a new one is opened automatically.

Instead of accepting the defaults you can also let the class create "yyyymm.txt" files or even "yyyy.txt".

The main function, '''Log''', creates entries as such:

{{{
20080721115636 *** Log File opened
20080721115636 (1) 127.0.0.1:2152 has connected
}}}

The number between the brackets (1) is the thread number. The number is not reported for thread number 0.

Note that the class makes intense use of error trapping to make sure that a problem in the Logger class will not effect the hosting application.
