Follow-up Comment #9, bug #22923 (project make): I agree with comment #2 that polling pipes would incur unnecessary overhead and that the generic solution would pair each spawned action against the pre-defined template of a "logger" command.
Looking at the recipient of messages in the existing implementation, it's the file system. Perhaps, another generic approach could be a file system driver that translates the "open" and "write" operations from separate processes using a pre-defined template of a "logger" command and/or sending the contents directly to an established network log service. I agree that extra line buffering and line splitting may need to be implemented. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?22923> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
