SYNOPSIS

# This module is implicitly used by Tools::Log to create a config
# which it uses to log messages.
# For the options you can pass, see the Tools::Log new() method.

# Below is a sample of a config file you could use

# comments are denoted by a single '#'
# use a shared stack, or have a private instance?
# if none provided, set to '0',
private = 1

# do not be verbose
verbose = 0

# default tag to set on new items
# if none provided, set to 'NONE'
tag = SOME TAG

# default level to handle items
# if none provided, set to 'log'
level = carp

# extra files to include
# if none provided, no files are auto included
include = mylib.pl
include = ../my/other/lib.pl

# automatically delete items
# when you retrieve them from the stack?
# if none provided, set to '0'
remove = 1

# retrieve errors in chronological order, or not?
# if none provided, set to '1'
chrono = 0

DESCRIPTION

Tools::Log::Config provides a standardized config object for Tools::Log objects.

It can either read options as perl arguments, or as a config file. See the Tools::Log manpage for more information about what arguments are valid, and see the Synopsis for an example config file you can use
