Hi,

I'm trying to use log4perl and I want to log in a module which is called from multiple different script files. Irrespective of who the caller is, the module should log the message to that particular callers adapter/log file. Can this be achieved?


I'm trying to do the following.
test.pl 
my $conf = q(                                                         
+                                  
            log4perl.logger.testLog = ).$logging_level.q(, logApp
            log4perl.appender.logApp= Log::Log4perl::Appender::File   
+      
            log4perl.appender.logApp.mode= append
            log4perl.appender.logApp.syswrite= 1
            log4perl.appender.logApp.filename= test.log               
+       
            log4perl.appender.logApp.layout= Log::Log4perl::Layout::Pa
+tternLayout 
            log4perl.appender.logApp.layout.ConversionPattern   = %m %
+n
       )
Log::Log4perl->init( \$conf );                                        
+                                  
use testPackage;                                                      
+                                  
&testPackage::foo();

testPackage.pm 
package testPackage;

use Log::Log4perl qw(get_logger);
sub foo {
    $logger = Log::Log4perl->get_logger("");  # IF I PUT testLog IN TH
+E QUOTES THEN I'M GETTING THE blah IN THE CALLERS LOGS FILE
    $logger->info("blah");
}

Can some monks please see this and bestow the light on this.
