[Caml-list] syslog interface?

[Caml-list] syslog interface?

[Benjamin Geer]

Does anyone know of an ocaml interface to the Unix syslog daemon (e.g. 
via the C syslog function)?  If not, does anyone think it would be a 
useful/useless thing to have?

Yup. My extlib library (Not to be confused with someone else's library of
the same name) has one. http://raevnos.pennmush.org/code/ocaml.html#extlib

I think there's at least one other implementation too.

In my previous job, I coded such an interface. It is in the POESIA monitor
(Poesia is a content filter - see www.poesia-filter.org for details, and its
monitor is coded in Ocaml) which is opensource, under GPL license.


The relevant files are util.ml, util.mli, util_ml.c available under
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/poesia/PoesiaSoft/PoesiaMonIcap/ (to
compile the whole util.ml file, you also need the pa_trace.ml camlp4
preprocessor; but if you look for syslog only, you can copy&paste the
relevant functions and use util_ml.c).

The code was coded for ocaml 3.06; in practical terms, you'll better write
ignore (esyslogprintf ...). Using the format4 type of ocaml 3.06 for kprintf
would make it easier in ocaml 3.07. However the code does compile and run
correctly under 3.07
