Re: [log4perl-devel] Revisit of database logging when database connection fails

[Robert J. <yad...@sn...>]

I'm having a problem adding new configuration items to my subclass -- 
is it possible without copying the code from Appender::DBI::new() to 
add a new configuration item?  The code I tried (below) didn't work 
-- the new option "LOGBUFFER" did not appear because the %defaults 
hash in DBI.pm is basically throwing it away.

I would basically like to use the existing new() method in 
Appender::DBI, so I'm calling SUPER::new() in my subclass.

-----BEGIN subclass DBI_Buffer
package DBI_Buffer;
use base ("Log::Log4perl::Appender::DBI");

use strict;
use warnings;

sub new {
         my ($class, %options) = @_;

         my $self = {
                 LOGBUFFER => 2000,
                 %options,
         };

         bless $self, $class;

         return $self->SUPER::new(%options);
}
