COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHOD FOR HANDLING LOG FILE
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for processing log files, comprising the steps of:
- accessing, by an application, a log file definition describing a first log file message format comprising a first parameter and a second parameter, wherein the log file definition assigns parameter identifiers P1, P2 to the first parameter and the second parameter, respectively;
creating a first log file message by the application according to the first log file message format, wherein the first log file message contains a combination of the parameter identifier P1 and a value of the first parameter and a combination of the parameter identifier P2 and a value of the second parameter;
sending, by a log disseminating program according to the parameter identifier P1, the value of the first parameter in the first log file message to a first recipient associated with the parameter identifier P1 in advance; and
sending, by the log disseminating program according to the parameter identifier P2, the value of the second parameter in the first log file message to a second recipient associated with the parameter identifier P2 in advance.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method for handling logs includes the steps of: accessing a log definition by an application, wherein the log definition describes a log message format including a first parameter and a second parameter, and assigns parameter identifications P1, P2 for the first parameter and the second parameter, respectively; the application generating a log message in the log message format, wherein the first log contains a combination of the parameter identification P1 and a value of the first parameter and a combination of the parameter identification P2 and a value of the second parameter; a log disseminating program, using the parameter identification P1, sending the value of the first parameter to a first recipient associated beforehand with the parameter identification P1; and the log disseminating program, using the parameter identification P2, sending the value of the second parameter to a second recipient associated beforehand with the parameter identification P2.

7. A computer-implemented method for processing log files, comprising the steps of:
-
accessing, by an application, a log file definition describing a first log file message format and a second log file message format, wherein the log file definition further assigns log file message format identifiers M1, M2 to the first log file message format and the second log file message format, respectively; creating a first log file message in the first log file message format by the application, wherein the first log file message further comprises the log file message format identifier M1; sending, by a log disseminating program according to the log file message format identifier M1, the first log file message to a first recipient whose association with the log file message format identifier M1 is created in advance; creating a second log file message in the second log file message format by the application, wherein the second log file message further comprises the log file message format identifier M2; and sending, by the log disseminating program according to the log file message format identifier M2, the second log file message to a second recipient whose association with the log file message format identifier M2 is created in advance. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)

10. A computer system, comprising:
-
a host, comprising; a bus system; a memory connected to the bus system, wherein the memory stores therein a computer-executable command; and a processing unit connected to the bus system, wherein the processing unit executes the computer-executable command to implement a method, comprising the steps of; accessing, by an application, a log file definition describing a first log file message format comprising a first parameter and a second parameter, wherein the log file definition assigns parameter identifiers P1, P2 to the first parameter and the second parameter, respectively; creating a first log file message by the application according to the first log file message format, wherein the first log file message contains a combination of the parameter identifier P1 and a value of the first parameter and a combination of the parameter identifier P2 and a value of the second parameter; sending, by a log disseminating program according to the parameter identifier P1, the value of the first parameter in the first log file message to a first recipient associated with the parameter identifier P1 in advance; and sending, by the log disseminating program according to the parameter identifier P2, the value of the second parameter in the first log file message to a second recipient associated with the parameter identifier P2 in advance.
