Sybase RAP uses log4cxx version 1.2, an open source logging API, to log events. Log4cxx allows you to control which log statements are output. You can find information about log4cxx.
The logging library is made available to feed handler developers so that you can use the same logging utility as the Sybase RAP modules. This allows events from custom feed handlers to be logged to the same log file as the file being used by Sybase RAP modules.
At higher log levels, more log information is reported.
Processing is slower to execute at higher levels.
