Wt: Configure the application's log at the runtime
Added by Hafiz Ahamd about 1 month ago
Hi, I know it's possible to configure an application's log using "* -debug" in the wt_config.xml file. But is there a way to configure the log at the runtime i.e. using WApplication or else?

Hey Hafiz,
apologies for the delay, I was out sick for a little while, and then of course we had the holidays.
You can set the logging configuration with WLogger::configure(). But this is on the whole WServer, not for each application. So I don't think Wt offers what you are looking for, i.e. logging specific endpoint/users separately.
You can always add some "identifier" to you logs to add context, and then parse logs, while taking this context into consideration.
Best,
Matthias

Hi Matthias, Thank you for the reply!
One more question, how can I access the WLogger in my WApplication class? I tried the following but it doesn't seem to work,
#include
...
Wt::logInstance().configure("* -debug -info");
...
Regards,
Hafiz

Hello Hafiz,
you can access it via the WServer, calling WServer::logger().
As above, be aware that this is a global logger, and will thus affect any running application.
Best,
Matthias
