Jan Ekholm<p>SpdLog seems nice. Replaced log4cpp with that in a non trivial application. It looked like log4cpp has been more or less abandoned. Lots of fun to modernize this thing which hasn’t been touched since 2016. All kinds of pretty weird dependencies also makes it interesting. But logging is sorted out now. Also moving from boost:: to std:: for things that have been moved there over the years. Maybe it’s also time to upgrade the used C++ standard from C++11 to something newer. </p><p><a href="https://toot.community/tags/cpp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cpp</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/porting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>porting</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/cruft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cruft</span></a></p>
