Hi, Dominique, Thanks for the suggestion to switch from stdout to stderr. Since std::clog and std::cerr are the same output stream, your suggestion sounds a lot closer to more accepted convention. To avoid the sudden change that might introduce confusions in some user programs that expect the log messages to go into go into stdout, I am inclined to keep the default to stdout for the moment but has added a couple of compiler macros to allow one to control whether to use stdout or stderr.
I have also added a note to warn users that the default will be changed to stderr soon. Thanks again. John PS: You can use -DFASTBIT_LOG_TO_STDERR to tell FastBit to use stderr as the default log file.
