Subject: closelog(): wrong handling of syslog flags
Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2014 18:01:20 +0200
To: bug-Sys-Syslog [...] rt.cpan.org
From: "Marcin Sacha" <marcin [...] sacha.pl>
Hello, I've found a quite serious bug in closelog() function: there is no reset of %options hash. It is global variable, so it must be reset to the default values after calling closelog() - same, like $facility and $indent variables are reset to default empty value. Now it is not possible to change the flag value from 1 to 0 in the subsequent openlog() call - the function only enables flags, not disables them. Regards, MJS
