PLSQLLOG Homepage
PLSQLOG is an Open Source logging framework to be used from within the Oracle® database. It can be accessed using PL/SQL code. A log message consists of a line of text. The text is prefixed with date information by the framework. PLSQLOG delivers log messages using Oracle® Advanced Queuing. All database objects of the framework belong to a single user named 'PLSQLLOG'.
Features

- Logs into table and/or file and/or console
- Only a small overhead for the producer
