Syslog libary for MySQL.

Copyright (C) [Nathan Johnson ]

Function is called as:

syslog_write(facility, priority, ident, log_message)

where facility is one of:

     'LOG_AUTH'      The authorization system: login(1), su(1), getty(8), etc.

     'LOG_AUTHPRIV'  The same as LOG_AUTH, but logged to a file readable only by selected individuals.

     'LOG_USER'      Messages generated by random user processes. This is the default facility identifier if none is specified.

     'LOG_DAEMON'    system daemons without separate facility value

     'LOG_LOCAL0'-'LOG_LOCAL7'    Reserved for local use.  Similarly for LOG_LOCAL1 through LOG_LOCAL7.

and priority is one of:

      LOG_EMERG   system is unusable

      LOG_ALERT    action must be taken immediately

      LOG_CRIT	     critical conditions

      LOG_ERR	     error conditions

      LOG_WARNING warning conditions

      LOG_NOTICE  normal, but significant, condition

      LOG_INFO	   informational message

      LOG_DEBUG    debug-level message

ident is prepended to every message, and is typically set to the application name

message is what is meant to be sent to syslog

facility, priority and identity should be constant strings.  i.e., they should not change while iterating over a result set

to compile (on linux, for example):

````

gcc `mysql_config --cflags` -fPIC -shared -o lib_mysqludf_syslog.so lib_mysqludf_syslog.c

````

NOTE: most likely this will never compile on Windows, though it is vaguely possible that it could interface with syslog installed via cygwin.

to create function:

````

create function lib_mysqludf_syslog_info returns string soname 'lib_mysqludf_syslog.so';

create function syslog_write returns integer soname 'lib_mysqludf_syslog.so';

````

after copying syslog_udf.so to the appropriate place (plugin dir), or setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH as per the documentation
