ChangeLog for 5.3.4 (devel)

Version 5.3.4 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2009-11-04

  • added the ability to create custom message parsers
  • added $RulesetParser config directive that permits to bind specific parsers to specific rulesets
  • added omruleset output module, which provides great flexibility in action processing. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT ADDITION, see its doc for why.
  • added the capability to have ruleset-specific main message queues
    This offers considerable additional flexibility AND superior performance (in cases where multiple inputs now can avoid lock contention)

  • bugfix: correct default for escape (‘#’) character restored
    This was accidently changed to ‘\\’, thanks to David Lang for reporting

  • bugfix(testbench): testcase did not properly wait for rsyslogd shutdown thus some unpredictable behavior and a false negative test result could occur.
