Zlog is a thread-safe logging library for C applications, designed for high performance and reliability. It uses XML or JSON configuration files for flexible setup, enabling features like log rotation, multiple output destinations, and various formatting levels without modifying application code.

Key Features:

Thread-safe concurrent logging
XML/JSON configuration for runtime changes
Multiple log levels and outputs
Automatic log file rotation

Use Cases:

High-performance server applications
Embedded systems development
Multi-threaded C programs

Alternatives:

syslog – Standard system logging, less flexible for application-specific needs
log4c – Similar concept but Zlog offers better performance and easier configuration
