RE: [log4perl-devel] Additional logging methodology

[Aldrich, T. <tim...@cs...>]

Thank you for the reply. 

I erroneously called them categories , which means source classes.
what I should have called it was a log level.  My program is currently
using levels DEBUG through FATAL so going back through and moving meaningful
logging messages out of INFO would require a bit of work.  
I see in the docs that it's deprecated ( though really easy :) to create a
new level , which seems to be a perfect fit. This is what I was originally
asking when I mistakenly called them categories instead of levels.

adding a level called STATUS would be a simple way to sprinkle in
$logger->status() messages designed for this new log without refactoring
my whole logging methodology.

_Why_ is this deprecated , am I missing a draw-back to this approach ?
