NAME

Log::Fine::Utils - Functional wrapper around Log::Fine

SYNOPSIS

Provides a functional wrapper around Log::Fine.

use Log::Fine::Handle;
use Log::Fine::Handle::File;
use Log::Fine::Handle::Syslog;
use Log::Fine::Utils;

# set up some handles as you normally would.  First, a handler for
# file logging:
my $handle1 = Log::Fine::Handle::File
    ->new( name      => "file0",
           mask      => Log::Fine::Handler->LOGMASK_ALL,
           formatter => Log::Fine::Formatter::Basic->new() );

# and now a handle for syslog
my $handle2 = Log::Fine::Handle::Syslog
    ->new( name      => "syslog0",
           mask      => LOGMASK_EMERG | LOGMASK_CRIT | LOGMASK_ERR,
           ident     => $0,
           logopts   => 'pid',
           facility  => LOG_LEVEL0 );

# open the logging subsystem
OpenLog( $handle1, [$handle2], ... );

# Log a message
Log(INFO, "The angels have my blue box");

DESCRIPTION

The Utils class provides a functional wrapper for Log::Fine and friends, thus saving the developer the tedious task of mucking about in object-oriented land.

OpenLog

Log
