Why do you need to use the deprecated syslog(3) APIs for this?
Probably because I need to be 10.2 compatible.
If you use asl(3), the new logging facility, you can either dispense
with the notion of a customized log file entirely since asl(3) allows
you to tag your messages with arbitrary keys that allow them to be
easily pulled out of the central log data store later, or if you
really want logging to a separate file, you can use asl_add_log_file()
along with the standard asl logging APIs to get what you want. See
asl(3).
Just out of curiosity, is there a darwin tool using asl? It could prove
interesting to see how this shall be used.
