A management system for monitoring logs running on an embedded system

Abstract

The invention provides a management system for monitoring the operation log of an embedded system. The management system comprises a log operation packet module, a configuration file module, and a log conveying destination. System application programs generate logs which are transmitted by the log operation packet module. According to the configuration file module, the log operation packet module determines the conveying destination of log information, the output format of the log information, and the generation process of the log. The log conveying destination processes received log information. The configuration file module is used for configuring the priority level of the log information, the conveying destination of the log information, the output format of the log information, the lowest level of the log information, the updating cycle of the log information, and the generation position of the log information. The management system is capable of providing the log with different grades, managing the different log information in a classified manner, transmitting the log information with unified formats, and determining a grade in which the log information has to be outputted immediately so as to achieve a purpose of outputting the log information in real time.

Description

【Technical Field】 [0001] The present invention relates to the field of embedded technology, in particular to a management system for monitoring logs of the operation of an embedded system. 【Background technique】 [0002] At present, adding log records to applications of embedded systems is generally based on three purposes: 1. Monitoring the changes of variables in the code, and periodically recording them in files for statistical analysis by other applications; 2. Tracking The trajectory of the code when it is running is used as the basis for future audits; 3. It acts as a debugger in the integrated development environment, printing code debugging information to a file or console. [0003] To add log records to an application, the traditional approach is to embed many print statements in the code. These print statements can be output to the console or file. A better approach is to construct a log operation class to encapsulate such operations. Instead of flooding the body of the ...

Problems solved by technology

These traditional methods have the following disadvantages: Disadvantage 1: Print statements are embedded in the code, resulting in complex code structure

Disadvantage 2: It is impossible to manage log information in a unified manner. The log information output by the command line is lost after output, and there is no classification management of log information

Disadvantage 3: Unable to manage real-time log information and non-real-time log information; real-time log information means that the log information should be output immediately, so as to be fed back to the user, and non-real-time log information can be saved in a file for later viewing

Disadvantage 4: You need to be familiar with the relevant commands of the embedded system to view the log information

The log information management system of this invention manages website log information, not based on an embedded system, and this invention cannot flexibly configure the importance of each log information, and cannot manage the output of real-time log information and non-real-time log information
