=head1 NAME

MQSeries::ErrorLog::Tail -- Watch MQSeries error-log files

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use MQSeries::ErrorLog::Tail;

  my $err_log = new MQSeries::ErrorLog::Tail("/var/mqm/errors");
  while (1) {
      my @entries = $err_log->process();
      process_errorlog_entries(@entries) if (@entries);
      sleep(10) unless (@entries);
  }

  sub process_errorlog_entries {
      my (@errlog_entries) = @_;

      foreach my $entry (@errlog_entries) {
          # Send off to syslog or whatever
      }
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The MQSeries::ErrorLog::Tail class provides a mechanism to watch
the MQSeries errorlog (AMQERR01.LOG), which is generally written
to whenever an MQSeries error occurs, or when certain events happen.

Every time the process() method is invoked, it will return a
(possibly empty) array of MQSeries::ErrorLog::Entry objects,
which can in turn be analyzed and shipped off to syslog or other
monitoring tools.

The MQSeries::ErrorLog::Tail class will notice file roll-overs
(where the old AMQERR01.LOG is renamed AMQERR02.LOG and a new
file AMQERR01.LOG is created).  In such cases, it will first
process the tail-end of the old file, then switch over to the
new file.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new

Create a new MQSeries::ErrorLog::Tail object. The argument is the
directory to watch (/var/mqm/errors for a typical installation's
system-wide global error log, /var/mqm/qmgrs/XYZ/errors for a
typical installation's queue-manager specific error log).

=head2 process

Process any changes since the previous invocation (or the constructor).
Read any data found, parse it and return the MQSeries::ErrorLog::Entry
objects that were read.
