in reply to Assertions and Logging

Having taken a look at Log:Log4perl, it seems to me that using it and Carp::Assert in combination is entirely the wrong thing to do. If you want to log warnings use the WARN category of Log4perl messages.

The whole point of Carp::Assert (from my reading) is that it is designed for testing fail conditions from which there is no recovery and that when it is switched off, it has minimum impact on the script that uses it.

It's design criteria, and the idea of permenently enabling it to log Warning conditions seem to be fundementally in conflict?


Okay you lot, get your wings on the left, halos on the right. It's one size fits all, and "No!", you can't have a different color.
Pick up your cloud down the end and "Yes" if you get allocated a grey one they are a bit damp under foot, but someone has to get them.
Get used to the wings fast cos its an 8 hour day...unless the Govenor calls for a cyclone or hurricane, in which case 16 hour shifts are mandatory.
Just be grateful that you arrived just as the tornado season finished. Them buggers are real work.
