[log4perl-devel] easier interface

[Mathieu L. <mrd...@ya...>]

Couldn't the interface be simpler?

In order to write one line of log, here is what I need to
do:

	package Groceries::Food;
	use Log::Log4perl qw(get_logger);
	...
	my $logger = get_logger("Groceries::Food");
	...
	$logger->debug("New food: $what");

Shouldn't I just be allowed to do something like this:
	
	package Groceries::Food;
	use Log::Log4perl::EZ;
	...
	DEBUG("New food: $what"); # Or Debug() or debug()

In which case, the argument to get_logger() is guessed to
be the name of the current package.

I like the philosophy of the package, but calling
get_logger in every single functions that logs is just a
waste.
