NAME¶
Device::Modem::Log::File - Text files logging plugin for Device::Modem class
SYNOPSIS¶
use Device::Modem;
my $box = Device::Modem->new( log => 'file', ... );
my $box = Device::Modem->new( log => 'file,name=/var/log/mymodem.log', ... );
...
DESCRIPTION¶
This is meant for an example log class to be hooked to "Device::Modem"
to provide one's favourite logging mechanism. You just have to implement your
own "new()", "write()" and "close()" methods.
Default text file is "/var/log/modem.log". On Windows platforms, this
goes into "%WINBOOTDIR%/temp/modem.log". By default, if the folder
of the log file does not exist, it is created.
This class is loaded automatically by "Device::Modem" class when an
object is instantiated, and it is the
default logging mechanism for
"Device::Modem" class.
Normally, you should
not need to use this class directly, because there
are many other zillions of modules that do logging better than this.
Also, it should be pondered whether to replace
"Device::Modem::Log::File" and mates with those better classes in a
somewhat distant future.
