Hello Tim, I love having the UUID in the logs. This helps a lot during debugging a system with high call volume. Thus I can simply grep the logs by UUID and get (almost) all data for this call. Best regards Peter On 01/13/16 17:06, Tim Smith wrote:
Dear FreeSWITCH Developers,
Permit me a modest rant if you may.
Why do log lines start with UUID ? Its format is hard to define and subject to the developer's whims ....why not start the line with a date, like almost any other sane program, and put the UUID elsewhere ?
Why on earth is the log format so inconsistent ? e.g.
Sometimes developers feel like giving us a date ....
7d28af7d-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-2e20e2bXXXX 2016-01-13 12:00:47.198394 [DEBUG] switch_core_state_machine.c:636
Sometimes they even manage the date in a sensible location ....
2016-01-13 11:58:14.838392 [DEBUG] sofia.c:9124
Other times they can't be bothered to provide such a critical piece of information.....
4891efd5-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-58d153b8XXXX Dialplan: sofia/internal/
Please devs... spend a little time cleaning up the logging ... it helps debugging and troubleshooting so much if we have some consistency there !!!!!
Thanks
Tim
