Watir uses activesupport and i think this modifies the logger. Or maybe
its another gem that Watir uses. Not sure really, but i think it's
something like that.

Marekj,
You describe the exact same scenario as what I am experiencing. I've
still not found out why it's doing it. As it's not my core domain I
will look into using the Logging gem.
Thanks for the tip

I've seen something similar when I moved my test machines from 1.5.3
to 1.6.2 gem. My custom logger has stopped generating timestamps and
severity and only outputted messages.
My custom Logger class methods were not executed. Logger class from
somewhere else was receiving my calls.
I've also moved to Logging gem as part of my move to 1.6.2 Watir and I
never figured out this problem.
P.S. Logging gem works great for me with Watir. I like the simple
appenders so I can output to different files and to stdout as well.

Hi,
I am using a logger to log statements to a file when running watir
scripts. The logger has a format specified. However I am experiencing
irregular behaviour when I for example call
Watir::Simple#new_browser_at() where it loses the format and just
outputs the statement. All other statements after this seem to lose
the formatting too.
Example steps are
log = Logger.new(logfile.log)
log.debug(Starting my watir test) = [01-01-2009 10:23:23] [INFO] -
Starting my watir test # As expected
b = Watir::Simple.new()
log.debug(opening browser) = [01-01-2009 10:23:24] [INFO] -
opening browser # As expected
b.new_browser_at(http://google.com;) # browser takes a few seconds to
fire up.
log.debug(browser open at google.com http://google.com) =
browser open at google.com http://google.com # Loses formatting
from here onwards
My code wraps these calls up in other methods but not doing anything
else. Any ideas why the formatting is lost? It seems it happens when
it waits for the browser to fire up.
Thanks
Wadud
