I have written a logger for my projects. I logs to text files and as you may guess there’s a time-stamp, namespace, class, method… and finally a log message. Like this:
TestNamespace.MyProject.exe Error: 0 :
11/11/2010 10:24:11 AM
Assembly: TestNamespace.MyProject.exe
Class: myClass
Method: Test
This is a log message !
TestNamespace.MyProject.exe Error: 0 :
11/11/2010 10:24:12 AM
Assembly: TestNamespace.MyProject.exe
Class: myClass
Method: Test2
This is another log message !
I’m looking for a free tool for analyzing my log files (some tables, graphs etc).
Thanks in advance.
Microsoft has a
LogParserwhich is very flexible with any log format. The down-side is, it’s a command-line tool and has no changes from 2005 (version 2.2). You can write SQL commands against your log file and it will generate proper tables/charts for you. Some GUI tools are written for it.
