Printing execution information?

[carl]

I have a large application that performs many different task where some
tasks can take up to minutes to complete (loading of large 3D volume data).
Currently I do like this:

std::cout << "INFO:: Parameters parsed with sucess" << std::endl;
....
....
std::cout << "INFO:: Images loaded" << std::endl;

which gets printed to the console when the application is executed. But is
there a more systematic approach to this like a C++ logger which can easily
be turned on or off?

There are many strategies to logging which are not within the scope of
this group.

If you want a (IMHO) good logging library, you can try pantheios but
google will give you more choice.

Thanks, log4cxx seems to do the job
