[log4perl-devel] Log::Log4perl 1.07 released

[Mike S. <m...@pe...>]

Just pushed 1.07 to the web site, here's the release notes:

1.07 2006/10/11
    *   (ms) Removed checks for unlink() in t/017Watch.t since they
             failed on win32.
    *   (ms) Fixed doc bug in Appender::File reported by Robert
             Jacobson.
    *   (ms) Added FAQ on why to use Log4perl and not another
             logging system on CPAN.
    *   (ms) Fixed %M, %L, etc. level in logcarp/cluck/croak/confess
             (thanks to Ateeq Altaf)
    *   (ms) Autocorrecting rootlogger/rootLogger typo
    *   (ms) Better warning on missing loggers in config sanity check

If all goes well, it'll hit CPAN in a couple of days.

Enjoy!

The test fails under perl 5.005_03:

--cut--
not ok 14 - Autocorrecting rootLogger/rootlogger typo
#   Failed test 'Autocorrecting rootLogger/rootlogger typo'
#   in t/004Config.t at line 235.
#          got: undef
#     expected: ''
--cut--

The following patch fixes this, and works correctly on newer perls as
well (tested on 5.6.2 and 5.8.8):

Thanks for this. I guess it's not easy dealing with an 8 year old
perl release :).

I've included it in the next release 1.08.

True. Perl 5.005_03 is part of the FreeBSD 4.x legacy branch. Estimated
end-of-life is 4 months away, then we'll be rid of it ;)

Much obliged :)
