Logging package for Common C++ / SocketPort connecting constructor

[Prochnow, Christian]

Hi List,

i have to things, first thing is:

I've done a logging package for Common C++ 2 that's more powerfull than the 
sLog class provided, and i want to contribute it to the Common C++ Libraries 
as "cclog". 
The logging class supports multiple logging targets which can also be 
dynamically loaded from plugins. Some first Logtarget-Plugins for logging to 
console, files, oracle and mysql databases are included in the package.

second thing:

For a network protocol daemon i needed to patch the SocketPort class that it 
can do non-blocking outbound tcp connections - but i did'nt find a nice name 
for it cause of the udp constructor. 
Any suggestions how this should be done in the preffered Common C++ way?
1. Solution is modifiying the "UDP" constructor that it takes additional 
arguments.
2. Solution is to provide a static function that returns a connecting 
SocketPort object.
