class AsyncChannel

Library: Foundation
Package: Logging
Header: Poco/AsyncChannel.h

Description

A channel uses a separate thread for logging.

Using this channel can help to improve the performance of applications that produce huge amounts of log messages or that write log messages to multiple channels simultaneously.

All log messages are put into a queue and this queue is then processed by a separate thread.
