[log4perl-devel] log4perl.category in config file

[John O. <joh...@o-...>]

Hi folks,

In a config file what's the difference between:

log4perl.logger.My::Module=...
and
log4perl.category.My::Module=...

?

cheers
John

The keywords "logger" and "category" are synonymous.

BTW, L4p uses dots instead of colons in class names when they're
part of configuration definitions, like

    log4perl.logger.My.Module=...

Thanks for the logger/category tip, the documentation didn't mention it 
but used both.

Yeah I gather it supports both from the documentation, it says they're 
equivalent ( 
http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/releases/Log-Log4perl/docs/html/Log/Log4perl.html 
).

While I'm here... I patched Log::Dispatch::ApacheLog so it doesn't need 
to be passed an Apache object, allowing it to be put in the config file 
- I'll try and put together a Log::Log4perl::Appender using it, anyone 
interested?
