David Sheets mentioned the example of testing a protocol with two endpoints, each with their own logger, for example. It also allows libraries to avoid depending on any particular library, if they prefer not to do that. And, it prevents libraries from using their loggers before the logging system is configured. -- Dr Thomas Leonard http://roscidus.com/blog/ GPG: DA98 25AE CAD0 8975 7CDA BD8E 0713 3F96 CA74 D8BA _______________________________________________ MirageOS-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mirageos-devel
