Hi *,

Thanks for the really great logging library. Just used it a bit and was
amazed how useful and easy to use it was. As I start using it more and more
I have some questions...

1. In my application I would like to start with the trivial logger and
extend this logger with more options, i.e. attributes etc. Currently I see
the following input when doing a trace:

[2013-07-03 22:17:32.462265] [0x76f73180] [trace]   thread_pool:
creating 1 threads[2013-07-03 22:17:32.462303] [0x76f73180] [trace]
thread_pool: created thread number: 1[2013-07-03 22:17:32.462312]
[0x76f73180] [trace]   thread_pool: all threads started[2013-07-03
22:17:32.462320] [0x76f73180] [trace]   thread_pool: constructor
finished

My question is what is the second attribute? Thread id? As my code runs on
a 64bit machine, that does not seem to be an address...

2. Is it possible to use a scoped logging with the trivial logger? I tried
to do it as described in the example but see not output. How can I produce
the output from the scoped logger?
3. In my example I wrote thread_pool prefix before each log entry. Can I do
it automatically? How would I go on if I only have trivial logging?

May be I misunderstand some concepts, like how to use multiple loggers and
connect them with each other? Any help is very appreciated.

Thanks,
Ovanes
