Lightweight Logging Service - Formal Revision 1.0

Description:  The Lightweight Logging Service has some of the same features as the Telecom Logging Service, but is much smaller and easier to deploy because it is less complicated. It was written using the BoilerPlate framework so it is portable to the supported ORB implementations.

Status:  Version 1.1

Details: CosLightweight Logging is a centralized logging service. Log messages are sent oneway to reduce overhead. Service facades are organized into status, producer, consumer, and administration. The producer, consumer, and administration interfaces inherit the status interface. The BoilerPlate implementation adds a proprietary Consumer Admin interface as a factory for the specified Consumer interface.

Lightweight Logging categorizes log messages into alarms, errors, events, reports, and debug. This is finer grained than the traditional categories of info, warning, error, and debug. The CosLwLogging categories can be orgainized in the traditional way but organizing the traditional categories into the CosLwLogging buckets is not straight forward. The finer granularity facilitates increased control of query constraints and better filtering of messages from the consumer interface.
