Interface ILogWriter

public interface ILogWriter

The ILogWriter interface defines the methods to write specific types of messages to a log. The classes implementing this interface are free to write the messages to any destination of their liking. The ILogger writes its messages to all registered log writers allowing logs to be created on standard output, in flat files and in databases depending on the need of the user.
