| Subject: | croak on non-numeric additivity in Logger.pm |
OS: Linux 2.4.20-28 i686
PERL: This is perl, v5.6.1 built for i386-linux
Module: Log::Log4perl INST_VERSION 0.51
This is not really a bug, just a feature to prevent additivity to be
set improperly.
When using a file to set config for Log4perl, I happen to add ';' at
end-of-line, which is unfortunate when setting additivity:
log4perl.additivity.foo = 0; # <-- TRUE, not false as intended
The above statement will set additivity to true for this logger, which
is the exaxt opposite of what I intended.
That's why I suggest adding a croak (or possibly a carp) on
non-numeric additivity.
Please withhold my email and name, I do not wish for publicity.
Best regards,
