[syslog-ng]feature request - adding template functonality to program()

[email lists]

Hi All,

Such functionality already exists for pipe() and file() destination
types so extending this to the program() destination type I imagine
would not be too difficult nor time consuming.

The following scenarios would benefit from this:

- move logic to e-mail type notifications (and othe custom scripts) back
into syslog-ng.conf=20
- adds flexibility of formating sql statements and passing the sql
statements directly into the database (having the near real time
advantages of using pipe(), but having a reliability closer to a db
buffer file as the process in not likely to die unexpectedly).

tia,
