-------------------------------------
2.56 2016-05-06
- Cleaned up some cruft in Pod. Some sections ended up in there twice.
2.55 2016-05-06
- The values of $@, $!, and $? are protected in various cases where they could
end up being changed by logging code. Patch by Salvador Fandiño. GitHub #18.
- Treat MSYS2 like Cygwin in tests. Fix by Graham Ollis. GitHub #19.
2.54 2016-01-18
- Fixed File::Locked even more. While some deadlocks were eliminated, there
was still an issue when a Log::Dispatch object was created in a parent
process and then recreated in the children. If the close_after_write
parameter was false, then there would be a deadlock.
- Made Syslog work on a threaded Perl when the threads module was not
explicitly loaded. Fixed by Konrad Bucheli. GitHub #13.
- The log() method now accepts a level parameter as an integer. Fixed by Steve
Bertrand. GitHub #15.
2.53 2016-01-14
- Actually fix File::Locked, this time with some actual tests.
2.52 2016-01-13
- Make File::Locked output do an explicit unlock if the close_after_write
option is not set. Without this it would open the file once in each process,
attempting to get a lock at open time, pretty much guaranteeing a deadlock
in a multiprocess environment. Now it should work sanely whether
close_after_write is true or not.
2.51 2015-09-19
- Fixed t/08-screen.t on Windows platforms.

SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
--------------
2.50 2015-09-02
- Changed how the Screen output handles UTF-8 data once more. The Screen
module has gone back to printing output directly to the global STDOUT and
STDERR handles. The previous changes broke the tests for several modules,
including Log::Dispatch::Config. This change should fix them.
-------------------
2.49 2015-08-21
- The Screen output now enables autoflush on the handle it uses to send output
to STDOUT or STDERR every time it sends a message. This does not affect the
global STDOUT or STDERR, as the Screen module makes its own handle for
output. This fixes a bug reported by Karen Etheridge that caused this module
to not play nicely with Capture::Tiny in some cases. RT #106605.
2.48 2015-08-07
- Fixed (I hope) tests that were added in the last release that fail on
Windows.
2.47 2015-08-06
- Really, really make per-thread locking work. Depending on when threads and
threads::shared were loaded, you might get an error like 'Type of arg 1 to
threads::shared::share must be one of $@% at .../Log/Dispatch/Syslog.pm line
67, near "$thread_lock)"'. Reported by David Schweikert.
- Added support for auth-related parameters and replyto to
Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSender. Implemented by Rohan Carly. Based on
GitHub #10.
- Added a utf8 flag for Log::Dispatch::Screen. If this is true, then it sets
the ":encoding(UTF-8)" flag on the handle it uses for output (without
affecting STDOUT or STDERR elsewhere). Suggested by Ivan Baidakou.
Upstream changes:
2.46 2015-08-05
- Really make the per-thread locking in the Syslog output work. Based on a
patch by David Schweikert. GitHub #9.
2.45 2015-06-14
- Don't include threads and threads::shared in list of dependencies. This is
only needed for Log::Dispatch::Syslog and is loaded at runtime as needed
(which has its own issues but ...). Reported by Kent Fredric. RT #103392.

Upstream changes:
2.44 2014-10-18
- The fix for a buffered email output in the last release introduced a bug
with _non-buffered_ email outputs. This would cause a fatal error during
global destruction when the DESTROY method was called. Reported by Christ
Hutchinson. RT #99474.
2.43 2014-10-05
- Fixed the thread locking in Log::Dispatch::Syslog (I hope). The previous
version caused Perl to crash when per-thread locking was enabled. Note that
I don't use threads so I haven't tested this. Patch by Sergio Fernndez
Muoz. RT # 99208.
- If a buffered email output is being destroyed during global destruction and
still has messages in the buffer, we warn and do not attempt to send the
messages. During global destruction, the package we use to send email may
already be destroyed, leading to weird errors when we try to use
it. Reported by Mark Overmeer. RT #97733.
- In 2.42 I added the ability to pass a hashref for the socket parameter given
to Log::Dispatch::Syslog, but I forgot to mention this here. This is
necessary to support remote logging. Patch by David Coppit. RT #93045.
2.42 2014-08-12
- Added a Log::Dispatch->clone() method. This returns shallow clone. The
outputs and callbacks are shared, but changes to outputs and callbacks in
the clone do not affect the original, or vice versa.
- Added Log::Dispatch->outputs() method. This returns all the output objects
in a dispatch object.
- Added Log::Dispatch->callbacks() method. This returns all the callback subs
in a dispatch object.
- The Syslog output now calls Sys::Syslog::setlogsock() every time a message
is logged, since something else could have called it in between logging two
messages.
- Added a lock parameter to the Syslog output. If this is true, then logging
is done in the scope of a per-thread lock. Reported by Cedric Carree and
Franck Youssef. RT #67988 and #85013.
- Replaced Class::Load with Module::Runtime.
2.41 2013-07-22
- An error is now thrown if you call Log::Dispatch->log without a
level. Previously you'd just get a warning and then execution would continue
(without logging anything). Patch by Ross Attrill. RT #87133.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
from 2.35nb1 to 2.40.
pkgsrc changes:
- adjust license
- adjust dependencies
Upstream changes:
2.40 2013-07-01
- Added a conflict entry for older Log::Dispatch::File::Stamped to the
metadata. Patch by Karen Etheridge.
2.39 2013-04-21
- You can now pass a port option to the MailSender output. Patch by Whitney
Jackson.
2.38 2013-04-14
- Fix test that used undeclared prereqs so it does not do that.
2.37 2013-04-14
- Moved Log::Dispatch::File constructor parameter validation moved to
_basic_init() to facilitate proper subclassing. Patch by ether. RT #84545.
2.36 2013-04-08
- Added a very simple Log::Dispatch::Code output. This lets you log to a
subroutine reference.
- Added Sys::Syslog 0.25 as a prereq. This is a temporary fix to the problem
of Log::Dispatch shipping lots of output modules with undeclared prereqs (so
as not to require mod_perl, four email sending modules, etc.). In the future
Log::Dispatch will be split into a core distro and a set of distros, one for
each output that has prereqs. Reported by Michael Schwern. RT #84481.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
ChangeLog:
2.35 2013-01-20
- Added a big warning about the potential for deadlocks in the documentation
for Log::Dispatch::File::Locked (ether).
2.34 2012-12-08
- Fix a test bug that caused the tests to fail on all Perls before 5.16.0.
Upstream changes:
2.33 2012-12-07
- Added a 'syswrite' option to Log::Dispatch::File which causes all writes to
use syswrite (so they're atomic). Patched by ether. RT #81669.
- The File output's DESTROY method now checks to see if it's associated handle
is open before trying to close it. Patch by Jeffrey Thalhammer.
from 2.29 to 2.32.
pkgsrc changes:
- add missing dependency
Upstream changes:
2.32 2012-05-24
- Fix a test failure - test failed if you had 0.16 <= Sys::Syslog < 0.25
installed.
- Added a kludgey test failure fix for failure on Cygwin. Patch by Christian
Carey. RT #77364.
2.31 2012-05-21
- Added missing prereq - Class::Load.
2.30 2012-05-20
- Remove Sys::Syslog as a prereq, since you can use this distro perfectly well
without it. Fixes RT #52065.
- You can now pass a subroutine reference to the sugar methods like
$dispatch->debug() and friends. Requested by Jeffrey Thalhammer. RT #77308.
- Calling sugar methods like $dispatch->warn or $dispatch->crit did not
normalize the log level, so the level would be passed to the outputs as
"warn", not "warning". Reported by Karen Etheridge. RT #77203.
- package no longer uses Module::Build
Changelog:
2.28 2010-12-13
- The Log::Dispatch module still had version 2.26 in the last
release. Reported by Øyvind Skaar. RT #63876.
2.27 2010-10-16
- Fix docs on handling of arrays passed to ->debug, ->error, etc. Requested by
Andrew Hanenkamp. RT #61400.
- Allow an arrayref for the Syslog socket option. Requested by Paul
Bennett. RT #57631.
- License is now Artistic 2.0

sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the

pkgsrc changes:
- Adding license definition
Upstream changes:
2.25 Sep 15, 2009
- Added a workaround for a weird tainting issue with Params::Validate. This
caused a taint exception when a Log::Dispatch::Syslog was created under
taint mode. Note that there is still a problem in Params::Validate itself,
this is just a hack.
2.24 Sep 13, 2009
- Simplified new constructor API (the 2.23 API is still silently supported but
not documented):
Log::Dispatch->new( outputs => [ [ 'File', ... ],
[ 'Screen', ... ],
]
);
Implemented by Jon Swartz.
- All of the mail sending modules now warn unconditionally if sending mail
fails. This removes the incorrect use of warnings::enabled() in some
modules. RT #43516.
2.23 Sep 12, 2009
- A new constructor API that simplifies creating your Log::Dispatch object:
Log::Dispatch->new( outputs => [ File => { ... },
Screen => { ... },
],
);
Implemented by Jon Swartz.
- Made name parameter optional. We now auto-generate a unique name if one is
not given. Implemented by Jon Swartz.
- Added a newline parameter that causes a newline to be added to each message,
and updated the documentation regarding newlines. Implemented by Jon Swartz.
- Removed repetitive boilerplate documentation from each output
class. Implemented by Jon Swartz.
- The level_names and level_numbers used internally are now computed once and
shared between output objects. Implemented by Jon Swartz.
- Updated repo url - now at http://hg.urth.org/hg/Log-Dispatch
- Explicitly depend on Sys::Syslog 0.16.
- Added warn as a synonym for warning. RT #44821. Requested by Dylan Martin.
- Added an add_callback method to Log::Dispatch and
Log::Dispatch::Output. This lets you add a new formatting callback after an
object is created. Based on a patch from Ricardo Signes. RT #48283.
- The Log::Dispatch docs mistakenly told you to provide a log() method when
creating a new output class. RT #40561.
- Made all modules have the same version as Log::Dispatch itself.
Changelog:
2.22 Nov 11, 2008
- Fixed a bug where Log::Dispatch::Email would die when it tried to
log under taint mode. Patch by Neil Hemingway. RT #40042.
- Fixed a misuse of warnings::enabled(). Reported by Darian
Patrick. RT #39784.
- Syslog logging now requires Sys::Syslog 0.16+.
- If you don't pass a socket argument to Log::Dispatch::Syslog, it
does not call Sys::Syslog::setlogsock(), which is the preferred
option for portability.
* If any of the syslog calls die, this is trapped and the error is
output as a warning if warnings are on. This is mostly a workaround
for Sys::Sylog not handling utf-8. RT #35270 & #37397.
This isn't backwards-compatible, but it's probably wrong for the
logging code to die because it can't log (even though some other
output modules still do).

Changelog:
2.20 Nov 2, 2007
- One of the tests failed on Perl 5.6.x. Thanks to Slaven Rezic for
the report.
2.19 Nov 1, 2007
- Switched to providing a traditional Makefile.PL as well as a
Build.PL file. RT #27208.
- When permissions are specified for a Log::Dispatch::File object,
don't try to chmod the file unless the permissions of the file
differ from what the file already has. Based on a patch by Kevin. RT
#28151.
- Require at least Perl 5.6.0.
- Remove the tests for the email sending and exit codes, since the
test had a heisenbug I could not understand. I _think_ the code in
the email modules is correct, but the test isn't proving anything.
- Added a binmode parameter for Log::Dispatch::File. Based on a patch
by Angelo. RT #26063.
2.18 May 12, 2007
- Log::Dispatch::ApacheLog should really now work under mod_perl 2, as
well as mod_perl 1. RT #26910.
2.17 Mar 31, 2007
- Log::Dispatch::ApacheLog should now work under mod_perl 2, as well
as mod_perl 1.
2.16 Dec 19, 2006 (Happy Birthday, Dad!)
- Don't require IO::String for running the tests. Reported by Andreas
Koenig. RT #23973.
- Moved Test::More to build_requires. Suggested by Andreas Koenig. RT
#23973.
2.15 Dec 16, 2006
- Don't try to test compilation of L::D::Syslog unless Sys::Syslog is
available. Patch by Kenichi Ishigaki. RT #23751.
- Allow a subroutine reference as a log message when callin
Log::Dispatch->log(). Suggested by Craig Manley. RT #23913.
- Added Log::Dispatch::Null output, primarily for testing.
2.14 Nov 18, 2006
This release only involves changes to the test suite.
- Make sure we don't fail if Apache::Log is not installed on the
system. RT #22791. Reported by Lee Goddard.
- Separated out compilation tests from other tests.
Pkgsrc changes:
* Remove dependency p5-Test-Simple>=0.17, because base perl>=5.8.7 includes
newer version.
Changes:
2.13 Sep 25, 2006
- No code changes, just added a SUPPORT section to the docs referring
folks to RT for bug reports & patches.
2.12 Aug 9, 2006
- The various email sending modules could overwrite if they were in
buffered mode and they sent mail as a script exited. Reported by
Dean Kopesky.
- Doc tweaks. Make reference to "Log Levels" section in output module
docs more explicit. RT #11224.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
does. This allows us to use dynamic PLISTs for Perl modules that are
built using Module::Build. Bump the PKGREVISION of p5-Module-Build
to 1.
* Drop the use of PERL5_USES_MODULE_BUILD and introduce a new variable
PERL5_MODULE_TYPE that is either "MakeMaker" or "Module::Build" that
names the framework used to build/install the module.
* Split out the variables set in perl5/buildlink3.mk that are also used
by perl5/module.mk into a new file perl5/vars.mk. Move some PERL5_*
variable definitions from pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.use.mk into perl5/vars.mk.
This just centralizes the common PERL5_* definitions into a single
file location.
* Convert the known packages that use Module::Build to set
PERL5_MODULE_TYPE and PERL5_PACKLIST:

2.10 Feb 11, 2004
- No changes to the core code, just a change to the included
Makefile.PL so it works with Module::Build 0.23, which breaks
backwards compatibility (grr).
2.09 Jan 09, 2004
- Fix a test failure on Win32 platforms. The problem was in the test,
not the code. Patch by David Viner.
- Distro is now signed with Module::Signature.
Fixes PR 29481.
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

changes since 1.79:
2.08 Nov 27, 2003
- Added Log::Dispatch->would_log method, which indicates whether
logging will be done for a given log level.
- Switched tests to use Test::More.
2.07 Sep 27, 2003
- Added Log::Dispatch::File::Locked. Based on code from JAA Klunder.
- Check all system call return values.
- Fix warning from Log::Dispatch::File if it was loaded after
Attribute::Handlers. Reported by Mike Schilli.
- Fixed up POD to pass pod tests.
2.06 May 1, 2003
- Added a permissions parameter to Log::Dispatch::File->new. Based on
a patch from James FitzGibbon.
2.05 Apr 18, 2003
- Changed a code construct that seems to provoke a bug for Meng Wong,
but no one else ;)
- Switched to Module::Build and removed interactive portion of
installation process.
- Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSender was causing Mail::Sender to send
debug output to STDERR if warnings were on. Now it's not.
2.04 Mar 21, 2003 (the "not in my name" release)
- The close_after_write option didn't actually do anything. Fixed by
JAA Klunder.
2.03 Feb 27, 2003
- Log::Dispatch::ApacheLog would break if a log level was specified as
a number. Reported by Kevin Goess.
2.02 Feb 20, 2003
- Added close_after_write option to Log::Dispatch::File. Based on
patch from JAA Klunder.
2.01 Jun 21, 2002
- Added new module Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSender, provided by
Joseph Annino.
- Log::Dispatch::Output now contains "use Log::Dispatch".
- Now requires Params::Validate, which is used to validate parameter
for constructors and some other methods.
- Add an 'autoflush' option to Log::Dispatch::File objects. Suggested
by Jerrad Pierce.
- Added some error checking to ::Email::MailSend.
- Changed a carp to a warn in ::Email::MailSendmail.
- Only warn if $^W is true.
2.00 Apr 11, 2002
** BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITY ALERT **
- Use a standard hash reference for objects instead of pseudo-hashes.
** THIS MAY BREAK EXISTING SUBCLASSES **.
- Log::Dispatch::Screen claimed it defaulted to using STDERR but it
was lying, it defaulted to using STDOUT. This has been changed so
that it really does default to STDERR. Reported by James FitzGibbon.
1.80 Oct 27, 2001
- Log::Dispatch::Syslog no longer requires syslog.ph for Perl >=5.006.
Patch by Benoit Beausejour.
- If you passed a mode parameter to Log::Dispatch::File it always
thought the mode was append, no matter what was passed. Patch from
Luke Bakken.
- Log::Dispatch::File no longer uses IO::File internally.
