Because there are often log files from different servers or even different processes doing the same job, it is useful to be able to combine these into one list for sequential processing.
Produce one merged log from many chronologically-ordered logs.
Iterate over a LogMultiplexer object to receive log lines from each of the logs passed in in the constructor. Lines are returned in chronological order if each of the input logs was in chronological order.
Combined Log Format is the de-facto standard for webserver analytics. Most logs contain a superset of combined log data. To allow logs from different applications to be processed by one system, a LogConverter can be used to convert other line formats to Combined Log Format.
