logging& plumbing::log

)

[inline]

The plumbing::log() function is used to make it possible to simply say

plumbing::log().fatal_error("croak")

to issue error messages. If you need errno translated, use libexplain to do it, and send it through fatal_error(). For example

fd = open(filename, flags); if (fd < 0) plumbing::log().fatal_error("%s", libexplain_open(filename, flags));
