HypoLog / News: Recent posts

HypoLog (previously called TWLog) is a collection of simple logging libraries for different platforms with an emphasize on ease of use. Currently supported are Java and .NET.

TWLog is a logging framework for Java and Microsoft's .NET Framework with an emphasize on ease of use. A new version, 0.3.0, has just been released, featuring a complete version of the planned API.

The Java and .NET versions of TWLog are pretty much completed. I've changed the projects status vom Alpha to Planning (log analyzer application is still in that phase) / Beta (the two TWLog versions) to reflect that.

The CVS now contains two modules: twlog, which contains the code for the Java version of TWLog, and twlognet, which contains the .NET version of TWLog (written in C#). Officially downloadable file releases should follow in the next few days.

I've decided to (at least temporarily) stop working on this project. If anyone's interested in continuing to develop the product, do not hesitate to contact me. :)

The TWLog Initial Release, Beta 2.0, has just been uploaded. Download and try it out!
