RE: [log4perl-devel] 0.40 released

Hi,

small note on the 0.40 release...the IPC::Shareable dependancy is not
recorded in the Makefile.PL. Currently it reads:

    'PREREQ_PM'         => { Test::Simple  => 0.43,
                             Test::More    => 0.45,
                             File::Spec    => 0.82,
                           }, # e.g., Module::Name => 1.1
I think it needs to be
    'PREREQ_PM'         => { Test::Simple   => 0.43,
                             Test::More     => 0.45,
                             File::Spec     => 0.82,
                             IPC::Shareable => 0.60,
                           }, # e.g., Module::Name => 1.1

Hi all,

just released 0.40 to log4perl.sourceforge.net -- here's the changes:

0.40 (11/11/2003)
      * (ms) perl 5.005_03 fix for l4p::Appender::Synchronized
      * (ms) Fixed a bug in 0.39 (thanks to James King for finding) which
        caused composite appenders like Synchronized to just use
        SimpleLayout. With the fix, composite appenders are now relaying
        messages unmodified to their delegates, which can then apply
        any layout they desire.
      * (ms) Added file_open(), file_close() and file_switch() to
        l4p::Appender::File

If all goes well, it'll be on its way to CPAN in a couple of days ...

RE: [log4perl-devel] 0.40 released

[Viner, D. <dv...@ya...>]

makes sense.  could you update the perldoc comments
http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/releases/Log-Log4perl/docs/html/Log/Log4perl
/Appender/Synchronized.html to reflect that? 

also, a note regarding the 'key' value.  The current implementation only
uses the first 4 chars of any key given.  so:

log4perl.appender.Syncer.appender   = Logfile
log4perl.appender.Syncer.key        = myprog_key1

and

log4perl.appender.Syncer2.appender   = Logfile2
log4perl.appender.Syncer2.key        = myprog_key2

will not perform as one might expect.  (All logging accomplished via Syncer
and Syncer2 will be synchronized with each other.)

Obviously, neither of these are really 'bad' things, they simply weren't
obvious to me when I started down the path of using synchronized logging.

Actually, I left it out intentionally -- IPC::Shareable is only 
necessary for the Synchronized appender, not for l4p in general. And in 
order to keep l4p open for all kinds of platforms (not only the ones 
IPC::Shareable runs on), I decided to keep it out of the dependency 
list. Clearly a tradeoff, since this way the CPAN shell won't follow the 
dependency to install it.

Updated the l4p::Appender::Synchronized docs to reflect this - thanks again!
