Fast C++ logging library.
Very fast, header-only/compiled, C++ logging library.

Install
Header only version
Copy the source folder to your build tree and use a C++11 compiler.
Static lib version (recommended - much faster compile times)
$ git clone https://github.com/gabime/spdlog.git
$ cd spdlog && mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake .. && make -j
see example CMakeLists.txt on how to use.
