== Logging

by Tim Pease

the "Feral Dust Bunny" release

== Description

Logging is a flexible logging library for use in Ruby programs based
on the
design of Java's log4j library. It features a hierarchical logging
system,
custom level names, multiple output destinations per log event, custom
formatting, and more.

== Changes

1 minor enhancement
- YAML configuration now supports multiple keys -- i.e. development
or production or whatever

2 bug fixes
- An extra e-mail was being pushed out when the e-mail
appender was closed
- Created an at_exit handler to close all appenders

== Install

sudo gem install logging

== Fun Fact

Apples, not caffeine, are more efficient at waking you up in the
morning.

== Post Script

Blessings,
TwP

What's better/different than in log4r?

* Logging is being maintained and currently under development.
* 95% test coverage
* Rolling log file works properly with multiple processes logging to
the same file
* A Growl appender for those on the Mac platform
* Provides a logger that works just like the Ruby logger
(Logging.logger)
* Logging is a wee bit faster than Log4r
* Logging supports the concatenation operator (if you just want
unformatted messages in your log files)
