The principles of Pantheios have been around, in the Synesis Software codebase, for quite a number of years, and have been verified in many projects, including internal tools, client projects and freeware.
The code that now constitutes what is recognisable as Pantheios has been around since early 2005, when it was forked out of the Synesis Software codebase and turned into an open-source project (even though it wasn't released into the public-domain until Sept 2006; for no other reasons than a lack of time on Matthew's part).
In this guise, Pantheios has already seen service in a number of commercial projects, and freeware components & tools, including the following:
- MBF Australia Pty Ltd's Auto-claims Switching Service (ASS) - this suite of middleware (designed and implemented by Synesis Software) carries several million financial transactions per day, and Pantheios (with a dynamic switchable front-end) lurks at every function call, ready to be switched on when needed, but incurring virtually no runtime costs when not. This suite of components (and Pantheios) has run since installation without failure. Sometimes the guys switch on the informational or debug just to watch the logs fill with massed of pertinent information, but for the most part they are content to let it all humm along nicely.
- The free shell extensions from shellext.com have recently had an upgrade to incorporate Pantheios logging. Now logging can be switched on if necessary, enabling much better diagnosis of potential problems on remote installations.
- Pantheios.COM - this adjunct library of Pantheios (soon to be available on the Pantheios main site) used Panthieos for its internal logging, and also uses several Pantheios stock back-ends for the implementation of its
Logger instances. - Synesis Software are currently engaged in providing consultancy and custom product development for Gen-I Australia Pty Ltd. Pantheios and Pantheios.COM logging is being used throughout the tool suite.
We are confident that you will find Pantheios to be as useful and effective as it has proven in these projects. If you wish to have your project listed here, just drop us a line (via the STLSoft newgroup).
