6.1 Overview

The Agent start-up instantiates a global logger. The Agent uses this logger to record significant events related to general Agent processes and service execution. You have access to this logger in custom service code. You can also create your own loggers if you want to log information to locations other than the default log output file.

You can log information from any custom service that you write. In many cases, logging will be functionality added to a service with some other main purpose, but you might also create a service just to log some information.

Logging is also available on a Web service-specific basis. See Chapter 12, "Web Service Logging," in the HydraExpress Web Service Development Guide
