Open Source C Logging Software

Serial line sniffer (slsnif). slsnif is a serial port logging utility. It listens to the specified serial port and logs all data going through this port in both directions.

Cinemagoer is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies. Platform-independent, it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole db.

The libexplain project provides a library which may be used to explain Unix and Linux error messages. This will make your application's error messages much more understandable to your users.

Weblooker monitors serveral services on multiple systems for their status, up- and downtimes. A webgui and Android client to view the current status and logged downtimes is available as separately package.

liblogger is logging framework for C/C++. It supports logging to a file/network/console transparently. It provides several logging levels and is highly customizable. Visit http://liblogger.sourceforge.net for more details.

CTrace is a multi-threaded trace debug library written in C. It provides a simple, fast, well documented trace utility for applications and as such is especially suitable for use in real-time embedded applications.

CONCPY copies the text of the console window as displayed, and writes it to the clipboard or to a file. That is, long lines that are wrapped at the right edge of the window will be wrapped in the copied text, too. Tab stop characters are replaced with spaces like in the console window. Trailing whitespaces are stripped. The tool copies the content between the beginning of the window buffer (top left corner) and the current position of the text cursor.

FW1-Loggrabber is a command-line tool to grab logfiles from Checkpoint FW-1 remotely using Checkpoints LEA (Log Export Api), which is one part of Checkpoints OPSEC API.

Java log viewer for gnome

cross platform logging module for Python with a C interface

xtrace - eXtended trace utility, similar to strace, ptrace, truss, but with extended functionality and unique features, such as dumping function calls (dynamically or statically linked), dumping call stack and more.

DBD2 inserts database records from TCP input. It is a companion project to Syslgod2 and an application in its own right. It ships with a backgrounding client for generic use. The client sends whatever information the user puts on the command-line to the back-end daemon via TCP. Upon successful transmission, the client exits. On failure, it backs off and retries until its life-time timer expires. The back-end daemon accepts data from Syslogd2 or its own client and inserts that data (and envelope information) into one or more databases using MySql client library or dbi drivers (also on SourceForge). The client needs no configuration (all input is via command-line). It is intended for hosts to make database entries without needing database client or interface code. Syslogd2 integration allows DBD2 to act as Syslogd2's database back-end for MySql and other databases supported by the dbi drivers. Original purpose was to track Linux cluster job status but other uses exist.

The goal of this project is to develop the OS-independent, obtrusive, customizable, extensible, generic logging and tracing software mechanism.

For C (and CPP obviously): Include a fast and tiny RAM-tracing feature for Real-Time (RT) debugging purposes. >> ONLY FOR DEBUGGING << Very much faster than printf-debugging, which may result in unforseen results in an RT environement.

Gwenhywfar allows porting of your software to different operating systems like Linux, *BSD, Windows etc. It also provides you with some often needed modules such as configuration file handling, simple XML file parsing, IPC etc.

Platform independant way of logging information to the platform's logging service. So far I have JLogger working for Solaris, Linux, and Windows NT.

Logapp is a wrapper utility that helps supervise the execution of applications that produce heavy console output (e.g. make, CVS and Subversion). It does this by logging, trimming, and coloring each line of the output before displaying it.

We provide a mechanism to trace the NPTL Library as few intrusive as possible for the application dynamics. The post-mortem analysis then allows measurements (contension,...) and understanding of hangs or bugs. No change in kernel or user application.

A C++ diagnostic logging API that is simple to use, 100% type-safe, generic, infinitely-extensible, atomic, platform-independent, and extremely efficient. And, best of all, it upholds the spirit of C: you only pay for what you use.

QueryXMMS uses libxmms to query the popular Linux multimedia player XMMS about it's current state.

A C library with support for logging, configuration, networking, message specification, semaphores, message queues, SSL, timing, epoll and email functionality.

A tool to monitor and analyse data transmitted between clients and a server through a TCP connection. This tool focuses on the data stream (software layer), not on the lower level transmission protocol as packet sniffers do.

This command-line tool allow to retrieve data from the Testo 175/177 sensor.

A hardware supported hypervisor originally built for malware analysis. Features: Linux VM introspection, minimal detectability, small (~150KB), simple, and well documented. Can be used for other purposes. Support for Intel-VT & Windows coming soon.

Tool logging facility. UDP server and client library included.
