Hi there, log4j guys,
just wanted to let you know that Kevin Goess and I just released the first version of
our Perl port
of your great log4j package. We've made sure that we're as close to the original
implementation as
possible. The project is still being enhanced, however the current release is stable
and has been
released to CPAN.
Would you mind putting our project on
http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/download.html
where you list all the ports of log4j? That'd be great. Here's the announcement I just
sent out --
for you to check the details of the project (the README file mentioned below contains
a informative
tutorial on the port):
The log4perl project team proudly announces:
========================================
Log::Log4perl has been released to CPAN!
========================================
Log::Log4perl is a Perl port of the widely popular Log4j logging package.
This project has been a collaborative effort of Mike Schilli and Kevin
Goess. Our project page with the latest news and the latest CVS tree can
be viewed at
log4perl.sourceforge.net
Wonder why you should use it? Logging beats a debugger when you want to
know what's going on in your code during runtime. However, traditional
logging packages are too static and generate a flood of log messages in
your log files that won't help you.
Log::Log4perl is different. It allows you to control the amount of
logging messages generated very effectively. You can bump up the logging
level of certain components in your software, using powerful inheritance
techniques. You can redirect the additional logging messages to an
entirely different output (append to a file, send by email etc.) -- and
everything without modifying a single line of source code.
Log::Log4perl very closely mimics the Java implementation (log4j) of this
logging engine -- we've gone a long way to make sure it can even
read existing log4j configuration files and apply them to Perl
without any problems!
See how it works by reading this tutorial:

Download the newest distribution:

Get it from CPAN once the upload is complete:

Keep on logging!
