Hi, First of all, thanks a lot for this great module!
I'm working on a project with libraries accessible via both a web front-end (HTML::Mason, mod_perl) and command line scripts. Most of the logging is intended for Syslog, but in some cases I temporarily use the Screen appender (command-line) and the String appender for output to the web. My initial config looks like: log4perl.oneMessagePerAppender = 1 log4perl.category.Netdot = ERROR, Syslog log4perl.category.Netdot::Model = INFO, Syslog log4perl.category.Netdot::Model::Device = INFO, Syslog log4perl.category.Netdot::UI = INFO, Syslog log4perl.appender.Syslog = Log::Dispatch::Syslog log4perl.appender.Syslog.ident = netdot log4perl.appender.Syslog.facility = local0 log4perl.appender.Syslog.min_level = debug log4perl.appender.Syslog.layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::SimpleLayout and then I add appenders as needed, via the API: In a Mason component: $logger = Log::Log4perl->get_logger('Netdot::Model::Device'); # Notice that I intentionally undef the object in order to call DESTROY and make sure the string # is not being used (wasting memory) except when this component is called if ( $logstr = Log::Log4perl::appender_by_name('updatedevice.html') ){ undef($logstr); } $logstr = Log::Log4perl::Appender->new(Log::Log4perl::Appender::String, name=>'updatedevice.html') $logger->add_appender($logstr); ... (stuff that produces log output) # somewhere in the presentation code: print $logstr->string(); # at the end: undef($logstr) if defined $logstr; The problem is my results are intermittent. Sometimes I see the output in the web page, sometimes I don't. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Any ideas? Suggestions on how to do this some other way? Thanks in advance. cv ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
