I'm not sure what POE::Component::Logger wants, but I suspect that it's a configuration file on it's own; in that case, it's a bit difficult just to point it at the calling script, since I don't think you can easily tell it to "open this file, but only start from after '__END__'".

However, you could create a temporary file from a "here" document:

open TEMPFILE, ">$temp_filename"; print << END_OF_HEREFILE .... ... write your config file stuff here .... ... END_OF_HEREFILE close TEMPFILE; POE::Component::Logger->spawn(ConfigFile => $temp_filename); ... unlink ($temp_filename);
Remember you need to add in the unlink somewhere to delete the tempfile; you need to decide where it should go depending on your code.
