Given log files selected through the QML UI, LogCombinator creates one single log file where lines are ordered according to their timestamps.
Uses the infamous FolderListModel (still a badly documented Qt.labs feature at time of coding)
Open the CMakeLists.txt with QtCreator, then follow the normal Qt build flow.
Log files must have ISO timestamps. An ISO timestamp looks like yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss[.mmm] The test files are
- file1.log
