I'm thinking about using log4perl as an alternative to my current object logging system, but I'm not sure how it will handle a situation where I need to append to a master logfile from several processes at the same time. I need to append to this log from several programs, some of which are multi-threaded (fork) servers, as well as from several of the same programs at the same time. Avoiding conflicts where messages are lost, and atomicity are pretty critical. I also want to centralize the configuration for all clients in one place. Is this going to be easy with log4perl? What relevant docs should I be looking at first? I need something like this running pretty shortly, and my only alternative would be to write a forking Net::Server thing to handle the incoming requests. Getting something like that reliable will probably not be a quick thing...
