Conversation
The logger was a single process-wide instance hosted in one compiled translation unit, so every solver library shared it. Splitting libcuopt into components means routing and mathopt should log independently, and nothing should have to exist purely to host the state. The logger is now header-only and, crucially, hidden. Hidden visibility is what does the separating: the static local of an inline function is emitted as an STB_GNU_UNIQUE symbol, which glibc merges across the whole process regardless of RTLD_LOCAL, so a header-only logger with default visibility would still have been one shared instance. Callers outside the libraries cannot reach a hidden logger, so each component exports a configure entry point. `init_logger_t` keeps its meaning -- configure the logger of whichever image constructs it, which is what the pdlp, mip and grpc solve paths already want -- and the new `init_component_logger_t` reaches a chosen library from outside. It defaults to mathopt, so all eight existing external call sites keep working unchanged, and routing is opted into explicitly. Two things had to change to make one log file survive several loggers: - The exported entry point now takes the same ref-count guard that `init_logger_t` takes. Without it the MIP solve path reconfigured the logger mid-run and, with truncate set, cleared a file the caller had already written to. - File sinks always open in append mode, with a single explicit truncate up front. A non-appending sink writes from offset 0 and silently overwrites what another logger has appended. routing::solve now initialises its own logger from the settings. Routing never constructed one, so its CUOPT_LOG_ERROR calls went into a buffer that nothing drained and were lost. Verified: libcuopt.so exports the four entry points and none of the logger state; cuopt_cli writes both its own and the solver's messages to one file and still truncates between runs. ctest failures are identical to clean main in this environment (10 suites, 908 gtest failures, both).

CMake $<TARGET_OBJECTS:object-library> usage requirements compile definitions are not propagated
💡 Result:
The behavior where compile definitions (and other usage requirements) attached to an Object Library do not seem to propagate is often misunderstood because of how Object Libraries handle their own object files versus their usage requirements [1][2][3][4]. Key Technical Points: 1. Usage Requirements Do Propagate: Unlike the object files themselves, the usage requirements (such as compile definitions, include directories, and compile options) attached to an Object Library via commands like target_compile_definitions(target PUBLIC...) do propagate to targets that link to the Object Library using target_link_libraries [1][2][3][4]. 2. Object Files Do Not Propagate: The primary limitation is that an Object Library's compiled object files do not propagate transitively through other libraries [1][2][3]. If Target A depends on Object Library B, and Target C links to Target A, Target C will receive the usage requirements of Object Library B, but it will not automatically include the object files from Object Library B [1][5][3]. Only targets that link directly to an Object Library receive its object files [3][4]. 3. Common Misconception: If your compilation is failing to see a definition, verify how you are "linking" the Object Library. You must use target_link_libraries(consuming_target PUBLIC/PRIVATE object_lib) for the usage requirements to be applied to the consuming target [1][2][6]. Simply adding

Propagate CUOPT_HAS_ROUTING to cuopt and cuopt_static. cuopt_cli and the tests link these targets through $<TARGET_OBJECTS:cuopt_objs>, which does not propagate cuopt_objs usage requirements. Without the definition, the routing branch in init_component_logger_t is a no-op.

Release the previous external guard before applying the new configuration.
configure_logging_impl assigns a new guard to external_config_guard() at Line 259. That assignment destroys the previous guard when it holds the last reference. ~logger_config_guard calls reset_default_logger(), which clears the sinks and reinstalls the buffer sink. The destruction runs after apply_logger_config, so a second call to configure_logging_impl can undo the configuration it just applied. Every later message goes back into the buffer instead of the file or console.
The same ordering applies when an init_logger_t in the same image still holds the old guard: that guard survives, g_active_guard is overwritten, and the old init_logger_t no longer controls reset timing.
Release the old guard first, then apply the configuration.

cuopt::default_logger()is one process-wide instance, defined inlogger.cppand shared by every solver. Splitting libcuopt into component libraries (#1622) means routing and mathopt should log independently, and nothing should have to exist purely to host that state.Change
The logger is header-only and hidden. Hidden visibility is what does the separating, and it is not optional:
The static local of an inline function is emitted as
STB_GNU_UNIQUE, which glibc merges across the whole process regardless ofRTLD_LOCAL-- so a header-only logger left at default visibility is still one shared instance, both when linked and whendlopened the wayload.pydoes it. Marking the namespaceCUOPT_EXPORTwould silently undo this PR.Configuring a logger you cannot reach
Callers outside the libraries have their own logger and cannot touch a library's. Each component therefore exports a configure entry point, the only logging symbols that cross a boundary:
That gives two types with distinct jobs:
init_logger_t(file, console)-- configures the logger of whichever image constructs it. Library code already used it this way, sopdlp/solve.cu,mip_heuristics/solve.cuandgrpc/client/solve_remote.cppeach configure their own library's logger with no change.init_component_logger_t(file, console, target = mathopt)-- reaches a chosen library from outside. It defaults to mathopt because every external caller today is LP or MILP, so all eight existing sites (CLI x2,dual_simplextests x6) keep their meaning and routing is opted into explicitly. The routing branch sits behindCUOPT_HAS_ROUTING, sinceSKIP_ROUTING_BUILDmeans the symbol may not exist.Two fixes needed to keep one log file working
Both showed up running
cuopt_cli, not reading the code.init_logger_ttakes. Without it the MIP solve path built its owninit_logger_tmid-run and, with truncate set, cleared the file the CLI had already written to.Routing's errors were being dropped
routing::solvelogs throughCUOPT_LOG_ERRORin its catch blocks, but routing never constructed aninit_logger_t. The default sink is a buffer that is only drained when one is constructed, so those errors went nowhere. Routing now initialises its own logger fromget_error_logging_mode(). Pre-existing bug, fixed here because per-library logging forces routing to own its configuration.Testing
cuopt_cliwrites both its own and the solver's messages to one file -- 67 lines, against 62 when the CLI's were being silently overwritten -- and two consecutive runs both give 67, so truncation still works and nothing leaks across runs.For
ctestI built a baseline by stashing onto clean main and rebuilding: identical results, same 10 failing suites and same 908 gtest failures, 92% both. Those failures are environmental in my setup (CUDA stream-capture errors, a null-offsets validation), not from this change.Follow-ups
Routing has no
log_file/log_to_consoleinsolver_settings_t, onlyset_error_logging_mode, so a library caller cannot yet send routing's log to a file the way the LP settings allow. Worth adding in the same shape as the seed in #1717.
