\subsection{The Server Logfile}
The SIVS server maintains a server log file. In this log file, all commands
and answers are written as well as diagnostic messages from all parts of the
system.In order to prevent the log files from growing to endless sizes they
are limited in length. When one file is finished the next file is written.
This happend for a predefined number of files. Then the first file is
reused. This scheme is configured by defines in servlog.c.
The interface to this module is simple:
\begin{description}
\item[void SICSLogWrite(char *ptext, OutCode eOut )] writes text with
outcode eOut to the server log. The outcodes are the same as used for
outpout through SCWrite in conman.h.
\item[int LogCapture(SConnection *pCon, SicsInterp *pInter, void *pData,
int argc, char *argv[])]
Wrapper function which allows the connection pCon to redirect output to the
server log file to its socket. For details see the user documentation.
\item[int KillCapture(SConnection *pCon)] This function is automatically
called when a connection object dies. It releases all LogCapture entries for
the connection.
\end{description}
