C++ Logger Tutorial

Hello to all, i am a student and i would like to develop a simple C++ logger for my project.
I have did quite amount of research including link listed below but i could not understand how it works.
Those questions and requirements sound like they were taken directly off your class assignment.
Go back and read those articles you listed.
The two questions are answered directly in a few of those articles.
Several of those articles have complete code listings for logging classes that satisfy your requirements and more. It should be more than enough to cover everything you need to know for your course.
If you have other specific questions (rather than asking us to do your homework), please feel free to ask those.

If you prefer books Ron Penton's "Mud Game Programming" book walks you through the whole process(see p. 122) although it might be hard to find a copy since even used copies are going for $80!

This doesn't really make sense.

It's your logger. You know best.

In the other thread you started with exactly the same title, you were given links to example code, techniques and tutorials. Were they not sufficient?

This is not a homework. I code it during my spare time.
I would like to understand these issues first before i start implement it.
Thanks for your help.

Loggers with a bunch of features are often unnecessary for most hobby game projects. If you really are writing a logger for one of your own projects, what features do you really need?
If you just need to log simple messages to a file, why not just use std::ofstream?

Yes, i willing to use ofstream but i need to clear the myth.
Does logger logging another program at run time ?
How to achieve that ?
Thanks.
