NAME

xDash::Logger::File - Base class for EventLogger, ErrorLogger, MessageLogger and EmergencyLogger

SYNOPSIS

 package EventLogger;
 use base xDash::Logger::File;
 # Check the correct file path for logger and
 # Uncomment 1.line and comment out 2.line below after debugging,
 # sub Open { shift->SUPER::Open( '/home/xdash/sender/event.log' ) }
 sub Open { shift->SUPER::Open( STDOUT ) }

DESCRIPTION

USAGE

The module is developed in the object orientated way. It can be used as the base class for logging tasks, which have to implement a fixed set of methods called by the derived class EventLogger, ErrorLogger, MessageLogger and EmergencyLogger hardcoded in xDash::Sender, xDash::Receiver and xDash::Archivist (driver pattern). By deriving from the class, as the way of passing arguments, you have to implement explicit methods listed below. The synopsis above is an example of the client script generated by the xdscr.

METHODS

Open( $file_path|STDOUT|STDERR )

Sets the logger file to $file_path and opens it. STDOUT and STDERR set the logging to standard output or standard error.
