  • 0

I’d like to include logging in a Perl module I am writing, but maintain portability so that applications that use it are not bound to a specific logging mechanism, such as Log::Log4Perl.

I’ve considered;

  1. Logging to STDERR and leaving it to the application to redirect these messages to it’s own logging mechanism (as mentioned in the Log::Log4Perl FAQ).
  2. Including no logging in the module at all.

I suspect there is a better way.

    Log::Any

    Log::Any allows CPAN modules to safely and efficiently log messages, while letting the application choose (or decline to choose) a logging mechanism such as Log::Dispatch or Log::Log4perl.
