+# Change Log
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.4.8] - 2019-07-28
+
+### New
+
+* Support attempting to get `Record` fields as static strings.
+
+## [0.4.7] - 2019-07-06
+
+### New
+
+* Support for embedded environments with thread-unsafe initialization.
+* Initial unstable support for capturing structured data under the `kv_unstable`
+feature gate. This new API doesn't affect existing users and may change in future
+patches (so those changes may not appear in the changelog until it stabilizes).
+
+### Improved
+
+* Docs for using `log` with the 2018 edition.
+* Error messages for macros missing arguments.
+
+## [0.4.6] - 2018-10-27
+
+### Improved
+
+* Support 2018-style macro import for the `log_enabled!` macro.
+
+## [0.4.5] - 2018-09-03
+
+### Improved
+
+* Make `log`'s internal helper macros less likely to conflict with user-defined
+  macros.
+
+## [0.4.4] - 2018-08-17
+
+### Improved
+
+* Support 2018-style imports of the log macros.
+
+## [0.4.3] - 2018-06-29
+
+### Improved
+
+* More code generation improvements.
+
+## [0.4.2] - 2018-06-05
+
+### Improved
+
+* Log invocations now generate less code.
+
+### Fixed
+
+* Example Logger implementations now properly set the max log level.
+
+## [0.4.1] - 2017-12-30
+
+### Fixed
+
+* Some doc links were fixed.
+
+## [0.4.0] - 2017-12-24
+
+The changes in this release include cleanup of some obscure functionality and a more robust public
+API designed to support bridges to other logging systems, and provide more flexibility to new
+features in the future.
+
+### Compatibility
+
+Vast portions of the Rust ecosystem use the 0.3.x release series of log, and we don't want to force
+the community to go through the pain of upgrading every crate to 0.4.x at the exact same time. Along
+with 0.4.0, we've published a new 0.3.9 release which acts as a "shim" over 0.4.0. This will allow
+crates using either version to coexist without losing messages from one side or the other.
+
+There is one caveat - a log message generated by a crate using 0.4.x but consumed by a logging
+implementation using 0.3.x will not have a file name or module path. Applications affected by this
+can upgrade their logging implementations to one using 0.4.x to avoid losing this information. The
+other direction does not lose any information, fortunately!
+
+**TL;DR** Libraries should feel comfortable upgrading to 0.4.0 without treating that as a breaking
+change. Applications may need to update their logging implementation (e.g. env-logger) to a newer
+version using log 0.4.x to avoid losing module and file information.
+
+### New
+
+* The crate is now `no_std` by default.
+* `Level` and `LevelFilter` now implement `Serialize` and `Deserialize` when the `serde` feature is
+    enabled.
+* The `Record` and `Metadata` types can now be constructed by third-party code via a builder API.
+* The `logger` free function returns a reference to the logger implementation. This, along with the
+    ability to construct `Record`s, makes it possible to bridge from another logging framework to
+    this one without digging into the private internals of the crate. The standard `error!` `warn!`,
+    etc, macros now exclusively use the public API of the crate rather than "secret" internal APIs.
+* `Log::flush` has been added to allow crates to tell the logging implementation to ensure that all
+    "in flight" log events have been persisted. This can be used, for example, just before an
+    application exits to ensure that asynchronous log sinks finish their work.
+
+### Removed
+
+* The `shutdown` and `shutdown_raw` functions have been removed. Supporting shutdown significantly
+    complicated the implementation and imposed a performance cost on each logging operation.
+* The `log_panics` function and its associated `nightly` Cargo feature have been removed. Use the
+    [log-panics](https://crates.io/crates/log-panics) instead.
+
+### Changed
+
+* The `Log` prefix has been removed from type names. For example, `LogLevelFilter` is now
+    `LevelFilter`, and `LogRecord` is now `Record`.
+* The `MaxLogLevelFilter` object has been removed in favor of a `set_max_level` free function.
+* The `set_logger` free functions have been restructured. The logger is now directly passed to the
+    functions rather than a closure which returns the logger. `set_logger` now takes a `&'static
+    Log` and is usable in `no_std` contexts in place of the old `set_logger_raw`. `set_boxed_logger`
+    is a convenience function which takes a `Box<Log>` but otherwise acts like `set_logger`. It
+    requires the `std` feature.
+* The `file` and `module_path` values in `Record` no longer have the `'static` lifetime to support
+    integration with other logging frameworks that don't provide a `'static` lifetime for the
+    equivalent values.
+* The `file`, `line`, and `module_path` values in `Record` are now `Option`s to support integration
+    with other logging frameworks that don't provide those values.
+
+### In the Future
+
+* We're looking to add support for *structured* logging - the inclusion of extra key-value pairs of
+    information in a log event in addition to the normal string message. This should be able to be
+    added in a backwards compatible manner to the 0.4.x series when the design is worked out.

+* [`log` documentation](https://docs.rs/log)
+
+A logging facade provides a single logging API that abstracts over the actual
+logging implementation. Libraries can use the logging API provided by this
+crate, and the consumer of those libraries can choose the logging
+implementation that is most suitable for its use case.
+
+
+## Minimum supported `rustc`
+
+`1.16.0+`
+
+This version is explicitly tested in CI and may be bumped in any release as needed. Maintaining compatibility with older compilers is a priority though, so the bar for bumping the minimum supported version is set very high. Any changes to the supported minimum version will be called out in the release notes.
+
+## Usage
+
+## In libraries
+
+Libraries should link only to the `log` crate, and use the provided macros to
+log whatever information will be useful to downstream consumers:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+log = "0.4"
+```
+
+```rust
+use log::{info, trace, warn};
+
+pub fn shave_the_yak(yak: &mut Yak) {
+    trace!("Commencing yak shaving");
+
+    loop {
+        match find_a_razor() {
+            Ok(razor) => {
+                info!("Razor located: {}", razor);
+                yak.shave(razor);
+                break;
+            }
+            Err(err) => {
+                warn!("Unable to locate a razor: {}, retrying", err);
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## In executables
+
+In order to produce log output, executables have to use a logger implementation compatible with the facade.
+There are many available implementations to chose from, here are some of the most popular ones:
+
+* Simple minimal loggers:
+    * [`env_logger`](https://docs.rs/env_logger/*/env_logger/)
+    * [`simple_logger`](https://github.com/borntyping/rust-simple_logger)
+    * [`simplelog`](https://github.com/drakulix/simplelog.rs)
+    * [`pretty_env_logger`](https://docs.rs/pretty_env_logger/*/pretty_env_logger/)
+    * [`stderrlog`](https://docs.rs/stderrlog/*/stderrlog/)
+    * [`flexi_logger`](https://docs.rs/flexi_logger/*/flexi_logger/)
+* Complex configurable frameworks:
+    * [`log4rs`](https://docs.rs/log4rs/*/log4rs/)
+    * [`fern`](https://docs.rs/fern/*/fern/)
+* Adaptors for other facilities:
+    * [`syslog`](https://docs.rs/syslog/*/syslog/)
+    * [`slog-stdlog`](https://docs.rs/slog-stdlog/*/slog_stdlog/)
+    * [`android_log`](https://docs.rs/android_log/*/android_log/)
+* For WebAssembly binaries:
+    * [`console_log`](https://docs.rs/console_log/*/console_log/)
+
+Executables should choose a logger implementation and initialize it early in the
+runtime of the program. Logger implementations will typically include a
+function to do this. Any log messages generated before the logger is
+initialized will be ignored.
+
+The executable itself may use the `log` crate to log as well.

+
+//! A lightweight logging facade.
+//!
+//! The `log` crate provides a single logging API that abstracts over the
+//! actual logging implementation. Libraries can use the logging API provided
+//! by this crate, and the consumer of those libraries can choose the logging
+//! implementation that is most suitable for its use case.
+//!
+//! If no logging implementation is selected, the facade falls back to a "noop"
+//! implementation that ignores all log messages. The overhead in this case
+//! is very small - just an integer load, comparison and jump.
+//!
+//! A log request consists of a _target_, a _level_, and a _body_. A target is a
+//! string which defaults to the module path of the location of the log request,
+//! though that default may be overridden. Logger implementations typically use
+//! the target to filter requests based on some user configuration.
+//!
+//! # Use
+//!
+//! The basic use of the log crate is through the five logging macros: [`error!`],
+//! [`warn!`], [`info!`], [`debug!`] and [`trace!`]
+//! where `error!` represents the highest-priority log messages
+//! and `trace!` the lowest. The log messages are filtered by configuring
+//! the log level to exclude messages with a lower priority.
+//! Each of these macros accept format strings similarly to [`println!`].
+//!
+//!
+//! [`error!`]: ./macro.error.html
+//! [`warn!`]: ./macro.warn.html
+//! [`info!`]: ./macro.info.html
+//! [`debug!`]: ./macro.debug.html
+//! [`trace!`]: ./macro.trace.html
+//! [`println!`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/macro.println.html
+//!
+//! ## In libraries
+//!
+//! Libraries should link only to the `log` crate, and use the provided
+//! macros to log whatever information will be useful to downstream consumers.
+//!
+//! ### Examples
+//!
+//! ```edition2018
+//! # #[derive(Debug)] pub struct Yak(String);
+//! # impl Yak { fn shave(&mut self, _: u32) {} }
+//! # fn find_a_razor() -> Result<u32, u32> { Ok(1) }
+//! use log::{info, warn};
+//!
+//! pub fn shave_the_yak(yak: &mut Yak) {
+//!     info!(target: "yak_events", "Commencing yak shaving for {:?}", yak);
+//!
+//!     loop {
+//!         match find_a_razor() {
+//!             Ok(razor) => {
+//!                 info!("Razor located: {}", razor);
+//!                 yak.shave(razor);
+//!                 break;
+//!             }
+//!             Err(err) => {
+//!                 warn!("Unable to locate a razor: {}, retrying", err);
+//!             }
+//!         }
+//!     }
+//! }
+//! # fn main() {}
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ## In executables
+//!
+//! Executables should choose a logging implementation and initialize it early in the
+//! runtime of the program. Logging implementations will typically include a
+//! function to do this. Any log messages generated before
+//! the implementation is initialized will be ignored.
+//!
+//! The executable itself may use the `log` crate to log as well.
+//!
+//! ### Warning
+//!
+//! The logging system may only be initialized once.
+//!
+//! # Available logging implementations
+//!
+//! In order to produce log output executables have to use
+//! a logger implementation compatible with the facade.
+//! There are many available implementations to choose from,
+//! here are some of the most popular ones:
+//!
+//! * Simple minimal loggers:
+//!     * [env_logger]
+//!     * [simple_logger]
+//!     * [simplelog]
+//!     * [pretty_env_logger]
+//!     * [stderrlog]
+//!     * [flexi_logger]
+//! * Complex configurable frameworks:
+//!     * [log4rs]
+//!     * [fern]
+//! * Adaptors for other facilities:
+//!     * [syslog]
+//!     * [slog-stdlog]
+//!
+//! # Implementing a Logger
+//!
+//! Loggers implement the [`Log`] trait. Here's a very basic example that simply
+//! logs all messages at the [`Error`][level_link], [`Warn`][level_link] or
+//! [`Info`][level_link] levels to stdout:
+//!
+//! ```edition2018
+//! use log::{Record, Level, Metadata};
+//!
+//! struct SimpleLogger;
+//!
+//! impl log::Log for SimpleLogger {
+//!     fn enabled(&self, metadata: &Metadata) -> bool {
+//!         metadata.level() <= Level::Info
+//!     }
+//!
+//!     fn log(&self, record: &Record) {
+//!         if self.enabled(record.metadata()) {
+//!             println!("{} - {}", record.level(), record.args());
+//!         }
+//!     }
+//!
+//!     fn flush(&self) {}
+//! }
+//!
+//! # fn main() {}
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Loggers are installed by calling the [`set_logger`] function. The maximum
+//! log level also needs to be adjusted via the [`set_max_level`] function. The
+//! logging facade uses this as an optimization to improve performance of log
+//! messages at levels that are disabled. It's important to set it, as it
+//! defaults to [`Off`][filter_link], so no log messages will ever be captured!
+//! In the case of our example logger, we'll want to set the maximum log level
+//! to [`Info`][filter_link], since we ignore any [`Debug`][level_link] or
+//! [`Trace`][level_link] level log messages. A logging implementation should
+//! provide a function that wraps a call to [`set_logger`] and
+//! [`set_max_level`], handling initialization of the logger:
+//!
+//! ```edition2018
+//! # use log::{Level, Metadata};
+//! # struct SimpleLogger;
+//! # impl log::Log for SimpleLogger {
+//! #   fn enabled(&self, _: &Metadata) -> bool { false }
+//! #   fn log(&self, _: &log::Record) {}
+//! #   fn flush(&self) {}
+//! # }
+//! # fn main() {}
+//! use log::{SetLoggerError, LevelFilter};
+//!
+//! static LOGGER: SimpleLogger = SimpleLogger;
+//!
+//! pub fn init() -> Result<(), SetLoggerError> {
+//!     log::set_logger(&LOGGER)
+//!         .map(|()| log::set_max_level(LevelFilter::Info))
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Implementations that adjust their configurations at runtime should take care
+//! to adjust the maximum log level as well.
+//!
+//! # Use with `std`
+//!
+//! `set_logger` requires you to provide a `&'static Log`, which can be hard to
+//! obtain if your logger depends on some runtime configuration. The
+//! `set_boxed_logger` function is available with the `std` Cargo feature. It is
+//! identical to `set_logger` except that it takes a `Box<Log>` rather than a
+//! `&'static Log`:
+//!
+//! ```edition2018
+//! # use log::{Level, LevelFilter, Log, SetLoggerError, Metadata};
+//! # struct SimpleLogger;
+//! # impl log::Log for SimpleLogger {
+//! #   fn enabled(&self, _: &Metadata) -> bool { false }
+//! #   fn log(&self, _: &log::Record) {}
+//! #   fn flush(&self) {}
+//! # }
+//! # fn main() {}
+//! # #[cfg(feature = "std")]
+//! pub fn init() -> Result<(), SetLoggerError> {
+//!     log::set_boxed_logger(Box::new(SimpleLogger))
+//!         .map(|()| log::set_max_level(LevelFilter::Info))
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! # Compile time filters
+//!
+//! Log levels can be statically disabled at compile time via Cargo features. Log invocations at
+//! disabled levels will be skipped and will not even be present in the resulting binary unless the
+//! log level is specified dynamically. This level is configured separately for release and debug
+//! builds. The features are:
+//!
+//! * `max_level_off`
+//! * `max_level_error`
+//! * `max_level_warn`
+//! * `max_level_info`
+//! * `max_level_debug`
+//! * `max_level_trace`
+//! * `release_max_level_off`
+//! * `release_max_level_error`
+//! * `release_max_level_warn`
+//! * `release_max_level_info`
+//! * `release_max_level_debug`
+//! * `release_max_level_trace`
+//!
+//! These features control the value of the `STATIC_MAX_LEVEL` constant. The logging macros check
+//! this value before logging a message. By default, no levels are disabled.
+//!
+//! Libraries should avoid using the max level features because they're global and can't be changed
+//! once they're set.
+//!
+//! For example, a crate can disable trace level logs in debug builds and trace, debug, and info
+//! level logs in release builds with the following configuration:
+//!
+//! ```toml
+//! [dependencies]
+//! log = { version = "0.4", features = ["max_level_debug", "release_max_level_warn"] }
+//! ```
+//! # Crate Feature Flags
+//!
+//! The following crate feature flags are avaliable in addition to the filters. They are
+//! configured in your `Cargo.toml`.
+//!
+//! * `std` allows use of `std` crate instead of the default `core`. Enables using `std::error` and
+//! `set_boxed_logger` functionality.
+//! * `serde` enables support for serialization and deserialization of `Level` and `LevelFilter`.
+//!
+//! ```toml
+//! [dependencies]
+//! log = { version = "0.4", features = ["std", "serde"] }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! # Version compatibility
+//!
+//! The 0.3 and 0.4 versions of the `log` crate are almost entirely compatible. Log messages
+//! made using `log` 0.3 will forward transparently to a logger implementation using `log` 0.4. Log
+//! messages made using `log` 0.4 will forward to a logger implementation using `log` 0.3, but the
+//! module path and file name information associated with the message will unfortunately be lost.
