ABLogFile free download, ABLogFile download on software download

The ABLogFile application was developed to be a very simple and easy to use real time log file viewer. All that is required is to open a text based log file, this program will check for any changes to the file and automatically display them on the screen. The new changes are displayed in a bright color and then fade to the normal text color. It also automatically scrolls to the newest line. ABLogFile supports a very basic find function.The hardest part of the project was how to organize the data in memory, so that it is easy to add new data, keep track of the changes, and quick to display the data. What I ended up doing after a number of sleepless nights of coding, was to store the entire log file in memory, create an array of pointers that point to the starting position of each line, and another array of sections which keep track of the changes to the log file. Another tricky bit was to work out what the line delimiter was in the file, the way that I ended up writing it was to search for a number of different delimiters, this part will definitely be redesigned shortly. Apart from the above mentioned, it was pretty straight forward
