libsyslog
=========
The code (to be publiced shortly) in this crate provides an API implementing
the standard Rust logging facade using the system's syslog. That is, it
implements the [Log][] trait of the [log] crate for native syslog, typically
implemented in C and residing in libc.
Why?
----
How does this differ from the handful of other pre-existing syslog crates? This
one uses the system library implementation rather attempting to rewrite it in
Rust. The hope is thus to have a crate that works on pretty much any platform
with syslog, avoiding bugs from making assumptions on implementation specific
details.
The need arose from a desire to use syslog on illumos, a platform where most of
the other syslog crates fail to even build and other(s) instead fail at
runtime.
So far this code has only been attempted on illumos. Reports on success or
failures to use it on other platforms are most welcome.
