-/**
- * Log events to a system log using the PHP syslog() function.
- *
- * This appenders requires a layout.
- *
- * ## Configurable parameters: ##
- *
- * - **ident** - The ident of the syslog message.
- * - **priority** - The priority for the syslog message (used when overriding
- *     priority).
- * - **facility** - The facility for the syslog message
- * - **overridePriority** - If set to true, the message priority will always
- *     use the value defined in {@link $priority}, otherwise the priority will
- *     be determined by the message's log level.
- * - **option** - The option value for the syslog message.
- *
- * Recognised syslog options are:
- *
- * - CONS     - if there is an error while sending data to the system logger, write directly to the system console
- * - NDELAY - open the connection to the logger immediately
- * - ODELAY - delay opening the connection until the first message is logged (default)
- * - PERROR - print log message also to standard error
- * - PID    - include PID with each message
- *
- * Multiple options can be set by delimiting them with a pipe character,
- * e.g.: "CONS|PID|PERROR".
- *
- * Recognised syslog priorities are:
- *
- * - EMERG
- * - ALERT
- * - CRIT
- * - ERR
- * - WARNING
- * - NOTICE
- * - INFO
- * - DEBUG
- *
- * Levels are mapped as follows:
- *
- * - <b>FATAL</b> to LOG_ALERT
- * - <b>ERROR</b> to LOG_ERR
- * - <b>WARN</b> to LOG_WARNING
- * - <b>INFO</b> to LOG_INFO
- * - <b>DEBUG</b> to LOG_DEBUG
- * - <b>TRACE</b> to LOG_DEBUG
