NAME

Log::Fine::Levels::Syslog - Provides levels correlating to those provided by Syslog

SYNOPSIS

Defines log level values and masks correlating to those provided by Syslog.

    use Log::Fine;
    use Log::Fine::Levels::Syslog;

    # grab a logging object
    my $log = Log::Fine->getLogger("foo0");

    # Note that INFO and EMER are provided by the
    # Log::Fine::Levels::Syslog object
    $log->log(INFO, "I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the dirt");
    $log->log(EMER, "No more wire hangers ... EVER!");

Note that this is the default class for Log::Fine::Levels.

DESCRIPTION

Log::Fine::Levels::Syslog provides logging and mask constants mimicking those provided by the classic UNIX syslog(3) utility. This class is also used internally by the Log::Fine utility for interpreting log levels.

Log Levels

Log::Fine::Levels::Syslog bases its log levels on those found in Sys::Syslog. The following are exported into the caller namespace:

• EMER
• ALRT
• CRIT
• ERR
• WARN
• NOTI
• INFO
• DEBG

Log Masks

Log masks can be exported for use in setting up individual handles (see Log::Fine::Handle). The following masks are exported into the caller namespace:

• LOGMASK_EMERG
• LOGMASK_ALERT
• LOGMASK_CRIT
• LOGMASK_ERR
• LOGMASK_WARNING
• LOGMASK_NOTICE
• LOGMASK_INFO
• LOGMASK_DEBUG

See Log::Fine::Handle for more information.
