+/// \page LoggingApi Logging API
+/// \section LoggingApiOverview Overview
+/// Kea logging uses the concepts of the widely-used Java logging
+/// package log4j (https://logging.apache.org/log4j/), albeit implemented
+/// in C++ using an open-source port. Features of the system are:
+///
+/// - Within the code objects - known as loggers - can be created and
+/// used to log messages. These loggers have names; those with the
+/// same name share characteristics (such as output destination).
+/// - Loggers have a hierarchical relationship, with each logger being
+/// the child of another logger, except for the top of the hierarchy, the
+/// root logger. If a logger does not log a message, it is passed to the
+/// parent logger.
+/// - Messages can be logged at severity levels of FATAL, ERROR, WARN, INFO
+/// or DEBUG. The DEBUG level has further sub-levels numbered 0 (least
+/// informative) to 99 (most informative).
+/// - Each logger has a severity level set associated with it. When a
+/// message is logged, it is output only if it is logged at a level equal
+/// to the logger severity level or greater, e.g. if the logger's severity
+/// is WARN, only messages logged at WARN, ERROR or FATAL will be output.
+///
+/// \section LoggingApiLoggerNames Kea Logger Names
+/// Within Kea, the root logger root logger is given the name of the
+/// program (via the stand-alone function setRootLoggerName()). Other loggers
+/// are children of the root logger and are named "<program>.<sublogger>".
+/// This name appears in logging output, allowing users to identify both
+/// the Kea program and the component within the program that generated
+/// the message.
+///
+/// When creating a logger, the abbreviated name "<sublogger>" can be used;
+/// the program name will be prepended to it when the logger is created.
+/// In this way, individual libraries can have their own loggers without
+/// worrying about the program in which they are used, but:
+/// - The origin of the message will be clearly identified.
+/// - The same component can have different options (e.g. logging severity)
+/// in different programs at the same time.
+///
+/// \section LoggingApiLoggingMessages Logging Messages
+/// Instead of embedding the text of messages within the code, each message
+/// is referred to using a symbolic name. The logging code uses this name as
+/// a key in a dictionary from which the message text is obtained. Such a
+/// system allows for the optional replacement of message text at run time.
+/// More details about the message dictionary (and the compiler used to create
+/// the symbol definitions) can be found in other modules in the src/lib/log
+/// directory.
+///
+/// \section LoggingApiImplementationIssues Implementation Issues
+/// Owing to the way that the logging is implemented, notably that loggers can
+/// be declared as static external objects, there is a restriction on the
+/// length of the name of a logger component (i.e. the length of
+/// the string passed to the Logger constructor) to a maximum of 31 characters.
+/// There is no reason for this particular value other than limiting the amount
+/// of memory used. It is defined by the constant Logger::MAX_LOGGER_NAME_SIZE,
+/// and can be made larger (or smaller) if so desired.
+

+/// used.

+
+/// \brief Logger Class
+///
+/// This class is the main class used for logging. Use comprises:
+///
+/// 1. Constructing a logger by instantiating it with a specific name. (If the
+/// same logger is in multiple functions within a file, overhead can be
+/// minimized by declaring it as a file-wide static variable.)
+/// 2. Using the error(), info() etc. methods to log an error. (However, it is
+/// recommended to use the LOG_ERROR, LOG_INFO etc. macros defined in macros.h.
+/// These will avoid the potentially-expensive evaluation of arguments if the
+/// severity is such that the message will be suppressed.)
