may i please inquire re/ Boost logging library . a cursory reading of the manual indicates it merely stores strings of the programmer's choosing . i wish to utilize a logging library for automatic playback of the logged application . does the Boost logging library provide such capability ? if not can another be recommended which does so ? thank you kindly
