Using the W3C Reference Library

# The Log Module

It is possible to log the result of a request to the Library whether regardless of what type of application is using the Library. The current implementation of the log manager is very simple but it is straight forward to replace the implementation with a more sofisticated one. The current log format is defined as follows:

    	<HOST> <DATE> <METHOD> <URI> <RESULT> <CONTENT LENGTH>

where the date and time stamp can be either in local time or GMT. Logging is turned off but the application can enable it at any time. However, it is also for the application to disable the logging in order to close any open file descriptors etc. The exact log API is described in the Log Manager.
