process start indication in logfile: msg#00013

Subject: process start indication in logfile
Hi,
 
The problem is that one cannot easily find the beginning of an process in a (rolling) logfile. I'd like to have an indication in a (rolling) logfile for each start of a process which logs into a file. Additionally, it should not be a high-level log because it might be appended to an alarming system. I imagine a static variable bOnce that is used to print out e.g. a horizontal line in a log file, which usually contains logging of a sequence of processes. Alternatively, it would be nice to rollover at the process start. In this case, there's always a file, which starts with the beginning of a process. Disadvantage of the second approach is that the maximum size (MaxFileSize*MaxIndex) might not be used efficiently.
 
I'd be glad for any ideas to realize such a behaviour.
 
Greetz,
Christian
