[log4perl-devel] Automatic new logfiles for new packages.

[Marco A. V. C. <mav...@bi...>]

Hi All,

I've been looking around but could not find a good anwser or guidelines for 
this. I have log4perl conf file that look like this:

log4perl.rootLogger=DEBUG,File
log4perl.category.BiT.Inter = INFO
log4perl.category.BiT.Inter.Adaptor.bitc2 = FATAL
log4perl.category.BiT.Inter.Adaptor.test = DEBUG
log4perl.category.BiT.Inter.Adaptor.auth = INFO
log4perl.category.BiT.Inter.Adaptor.info = DEBUG

log4perl.appender.File = Log::Dispatch::File
log4perl.appender.File.filename = /tmp/biti.log
log4perl.appender.File.mode = append
log4perl.appender.File.layout = \
     Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
log4perl.appender.File.layout.ConversionPattern =  %d %C %m %n

And there is no problem in here, as expected log4perl logs everything in 
'/tmp/biti.log'. But as you can see there's BiT.Inter.Adaptor.* classes and they 
are coded with very different propouses, so have all logs in one file makes more 
difficult to access/correct some bug. I was thinking in have one file for each 
Adaptor, but this means write one more Appender configuration for each Adaptor. 
But I expect more and more Adaptors and as a programmer I'm very lazy, the 
result I want is that each new adaptor added in my conf file will imply a nre 
log file with it's name. And other messages to this main log file '/tmp/biti.log'

Can anyone point me some thoughts about it?

Thanks in advance.
Marco.
