I’m happy to announce the first official release of xLog!

xlog_info_logo

xLog is a PHP extension that allows extended logging of PHP errors, including Fatal errors.  Output typically includes referral, GET values, URL, and a full backtrace.  Additional information can be included via custom variables by the developer at runtime.  xLog is derived from similar code used for the last couple years at Facebook for faster debugging by developers.  It’s finally reached the point where I believe it’s ready to take the next step into the Open Source community so it can grow even more and benefit a larger group of people.  I often forget that other developers don’t get full backtraces for all their PHP errors, so I hope that in the next year everyone else feels the same way!  Please contact me with any problems, suggestions, or other feedback!   Read more and download it on the xLog page.
