Log file will not become empty, as this is not redirection (>), that is append operation (>>).

NAME
Net::Daemon::Log - Utility functions for logging
SYNOPSIS
# Choose logging method: syslog or Win32::EventLog
$self->{'facility'} = 'mail'; # Default: Daemon
$self->{'logfile'} = undef; # Default
# Choose logging method: stderr
$self->{'logfile'} = 1;
# Choose logging method: IO handle
my $file = IO::File->new("my.log", "a");
$self->{'logfile'} = $file;
# Debugging messages (equivalent):
$self->Log('debug', "This is a debugging message");
$self->Debug("This is a debugging message");
# Error messages (equivalent):
$self->Log('err', "This is an error message");
$self->Error("This is an error message");
# Fatal error messages (implies 'die')
$self->Fatal("This is a fatal error message");
WARNING
THIS IS ALPHA SOFTWARE. It is *only* 'Alpha' because the interface (API) is not finalised. The Alpha status does not reflect code quality
or stability.
DESCRIPTION
Net::Daemon::Log is a utility class for portable logging messages. By default it uses syslog (Unix) or Win32::EventLog (Windows), but
logging messages can also be redirected to stderr or a log file.
Generic Logging
$self->Log($level, $msg, @args);
This is the generic interface. The logging level is in syslog style, thus one of the words 'debug', 'info', 'notice', 'err' or 'crit'.
You'll rarely need info and notice and I can hardly imagine a reason for crit (critical). In 95% of all cases debug and err will be
sufficient.
The logging string $msg is a format string similar to printf.
Utility methods
$self->Debug($msg, @args);
$self->Error($msg, @args);
$self->Fatal($msg, @args);
These are replacements for logging with levels debug and err. The difference between the latter two is that Fatal includes throwing a Perl
exception.
Chossing a logging target
By default logging will happen to syslog (Unix) or EventLog (Windows). However you may choose logging to stderr by setting
$self->{'logfile'} = 1;
This is required if neither of syslog and EventLog is available. An alternative option is setting
$self->{'logfile'} = $handle;
where $handle is any object supporting a print method, for example an IO::Handle object. Usually the logging target is choosen as soon as
you call $self->Log() the first time. However, you may force choosing the target by doing a
$self->OpenLog();
before calling Log the first time.
MULTITHREADING
The Multithreading capabitities of this class are depending heavily on the underlying classes Sys::Syslog, Win32::EventLog or IO::Handle.
If they are thread safe, you can well assume that this package is too. (The exception being that you should better call $self->OpenLog()
before threading.)
