v1.5.0

  • Added Filters. The filter class can be used for filtering log records. Filters can be added to handler instances. See example_filters.cpp (#49)
  • Timestamp formatting optimisation for the backend worker thread.
  • Free list allocator optimisation for the backend worker thread.
  • PatternFormatter enhancement. It is now possible to pass {fmt} string syntax to QUILL_STRING. The default PatternFormatter string has been changed to: "%(ascii_time) [%(thread)] %(fileline:<28) LOG_%(level_name) %(logger_name:<12) - %(message)". This results to the following log being properly aligned despite the different lengths of each filename and logger name.
22:31:07.995438465 [2666041] file1.h:11                   LOG_INFO      logger1      - Log from file.
22:31:07.995445699 [2666041] long_file2.h:11              LOG_INFO      logger_fl2   - Log from other file.
22:31:07.995457144 [2666041] a_longer_file_3.hpp:11       LOG_INFO      logger_fl2_l - Log from other file.
22:31:07.995462471 [2666041] example_trivial.cpp:30       LOG_TRACE_L3  root         - This is a log trace l3 example 1

v1.4.1

  • Do not force quill to always build as static library in cmake.
  • Minor fix when quill is compiled with no exceptions.
  • Add the option to disable the non prefixed macro definitions if QUILL_DISABLE_NON_PREFIXED_MACROS is defined. (#40)

v1.4.0

  • Added support for printing colour codes in the terminal. See ConsoleHandler
  • RotatingFileHandler improvements and minor change in API. See RotatingFileHandler
  • DailyFileHandler is removed and replaced by TimeRotatingFileHandler. See TimeRotatingFileHandler
  • Added backtrace logging. Log messages can be stored in a buffer and flushed later on demand. See Backtrace Logging
  • Added bundled doctest 2.4.0
  • Migrated all tests from gtest to doctest.
  • Upgraded bundled libfmt to 7.0.3

v1.3.3

  • Upgraded bundled libfmt to 7.0.2
  • Fixed compile error with libfmt versions > 7.0.0

v1.3.2

  • Add a CMake option QUILL_USE_BOUNDED_QUEUE for bounded queue.
  • Fixed a clang 10 warning
  • Fixed MinGw build

v1.3.1

  • Minor CMake fixes when QUILL_FMT_EXTERNAL option is used.

v1.3.0

New Features

  • Added option QUILL_NO_EXCEPTIONS to disable exceptions, std::abort() is called instead of an expection. (#16)
  • Exceptions thrown in the backend worker thread, will now call a user provided error handler callback to handle the error. (#21)
  • Compile time checks for unsafe to copy user defined types. Non trivial user defined types must be explicitly tagged as safe to copy with the use of QUILL_COPY_LOGGABLE;. Otherwise they have to be formatted and passed as a string to the logger by the user. The old unsafe mode is still usable by #define QUILL_MODE_UNSAFE (#20)
  • Added QUILL_USE_BOUNDED_QUEUE. In this mode no new queues get allocated but instead log messages get lost. Number of lost messages is reported to stderr.
  • Minor hot path optimisation. The pointer to the metadata for each log message is no logger copied to the queue but passed as a template argument instead.
  • Added a latency benchmark, easily extendable for any logger

Improvements/Fixes

  • QUILL_RDTSC_CLOCK option is replaced by QUILL_CHRONO_CLOCK which is by OFF by default.
  • Improve compiler error message when trying to log a non copy constructible user defined type
  • Fix buffer reallocation bug on TimestampFormatter. In previous versions any timestamp format set to 'set_pattern' expanding to a string longer than 32 bytes would cause a crash. (#24)
  • The backend logging thread will now copy all messages from the SPSC queue to a local priority queue. This keeps the SPSC less empty avoiding a potential allocation on the hot path.
  • std::string_view is now promoted to std::string to take a deep copy
  • The queue capacity has been moved from config to Tweakme.h.
  • Multiple formats patterns support for stdout and stderr handlers. See example_stdout_multiple_formatters.cpp
  • quill::start() will now block until the backend worker has started.
  • Upgraded bundled libfmt to 6.2.1

v1.2.3

  • CMake changes to support package installation in conan.

v1.2.2

  • Support for arm/arm64. (#19)
  • Add a cmake option QUILL_ENABLE_INSTALL to enable cpack.

v1.2.1

  • Improved QUILL_RDTSC_CLOCK tweak option. It is now possible to switch between using rdtsc or std::chrono clock without having to recompile quill as library.

v1.2.0

  • Linking and including an external version of fmt is now supported. See TweakMe.h
  • Fixed compiler warnings when using clang's -Wdocumentation. (#12)
  • Fixed a bug that wouldn't report a compile-time error for invalid format strings. (#13)
  • Added process ID to Formatter. (#14)
  • Enhanced timestamp formatting. The timestamp_format string passed in handler->set_pattern(format_pattern, timestamp_format, timezone) now accepts three additional specifiers %Qms, %Qus, %Qus that can be used to format the fractional seconds. See here. (#15)

v1.1.0

  • Daily file handler. The file handler rollover every 24 hours
  • Rotating file handler. The file handler will rollover based on the size of the file
  • MinGW compatibility
  • Added a CMake option QUILL_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE. Building Quill as a master project now defaults to non verbose makefile output unless -DQUILL_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON is passed to CMake. (#6)
  • Flush policy improvement. Previously Quill backend worker thread would never flush. This made watching the live log of the application harder because the user has to wait for the operating system to flush or quill::flush() had to be called on the caller threads. This has now been fixed, when the backend thread worker has no more log messages to process it will automatically flush. (#8)
  • The log level names have been changed from "LOG_INFO", "LOG_DEBUG", etc to "INFO", "DEBUG", etc .. The default formatter string is now using "LOG_"%(level_name) instead of %(level_name) therefore there is now change in the behaviour. This change gives a lot of more flexibility to users who prefer to see e.g. INFO instead of LOG_INFO in the logs. (#7)
  • An option has been added to append the date to the filename when using a FileHandler quill::file_handler(filename, mode, FilenameAppend);. (#7)
  • It is now possible to specify the timezone of each handler timestamp. A new parameter is added to file_handler->set_pattern(...). See PatternFormatter::Timezone. (#7)
  • Rename emit as it can confict with Qt macros. (#4)
  • Upgraded libfmt to 6.2.0.

v1.0.0

  • Initial release.
  • Using libfmt to 6.1.2.
