#
# == Description
#
# The Logger class provides a simple but sophisticated logging utility that
# anyone can use because it's included in the Ruby 1.8.x standard library.
# For more advanced logging, see the "Log4r" package on the RAA.
#
# The HOWTOs below give a code-based overview of Logger's usage, but the basic
# concept is as follows.  You create a Logger object (output to a file or
# elsewhere), and use it to log messages.  The messages will have varying
# levels (+info+, +error+, etc), reflecting their varying importance.  The
# levels, and their meanings, are:
#
# +FATAL+:: an unhandleable error that results in a program crash
# +ERROR+:: a handleable error condition
# +WARN+::  a warning
# +INFO+::  generic (useful) information about system operation
# +DEBUG+:: low-level information for developers
#
# So each message has a level, and the Logger itself has a level, which acts
# as a filter, so you can control the amount of information emitted from the
# logger without having to remove actual messages.
#
# For instance, in a production system, you may have your logger(s) set to
# +INFO+ (or +WARN+ if you don't want the log files growing large with
# repetitive information).  When you are developing it, though, you probably
# want to know about the program's internal state, and would set them to
# +DEBUG+.
#
# === Example
#
# A simple example demonstrates the above explanation:
#
#   log = Logger.new(STDOUT)
#   log.level = Logger::WARN
#
#   log.debug("Created logger")
#   log.info("Program started")
#   log.warn("Nothing to do!")
#
#   begin
#     File.each_line(path) do |line|
#       unless line =~ /^(\w+) = (.*)$/
#         log.error("Line in wrong format: #{line}")
#       end
#     end
#   rescue => err
#     log.fatal("Caught exception; exiting")
#     log.fatal(err)
#   end
#
# Because the Logger's level is set to +WARN+, only the warning, error, and
# fatal messages are recorded.  The debug and info messages are silently
# discarded.
#
# === Features
#
# There are several interesting features that Logger provides, like
# auto-rolling of log files, setting the format of log messages, and
# specifying a program name in conjunction with the message.  The next section
# shows you how to achieve these things.
#
# See http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=log4r for Log4r, which contains
# many advanced features like file-based configuration, a wide range of
# logging targets, simultaneous logging, and hierarchical logging.
#
#
# == HOWTOs
#
# === How to create a logger
#
# The options below give you various choices, in more or less increasing
# complexity.
#
# 1. Create a logger which logs messages to STDERR/STDOUT.
#
#      logger = Logger.new(STDERR)
#      logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
#
# 2. Create a logger for the file which has the specified name.
#
#      logger = Logger.new('logfile.log')
#
# 3. Create a logger for the specified file.
#
#      file = File.open('foo.log', File::WRONLY | File::APPEND)
#      # To create new (and to remove old) logfile, add File::CREAT like;
#      #   file = open('foo.log', File::WRONLY | File::APPEND | File::CREAT)
#      logger = Logger.new(file)
#
# 4. Create a logger which ages logfile once it reaches a certain size.  Leave
#    10 "old log files" and each file is about 1,024,000 bytes.
#
#      logger = Logger.new('foo.log', 10, 1024000)
#
# 5. Create a logger which ages logfile daily/weekly/monthly.
#
#      logger = Logger.new('foo.log', 'daily')
#      logger = Logger.new('foo.log', 'weekly')
#      logger = Logger.new('foo.log', 'monthly')
#
# === How to log a message
#
# Notice the different methods (+fatal+, +error+, +info+) being used to log
# messages of various levels.  Other methods in this family are +warn+ and
# +debug+.  +add+ is used below to log a message of an arbitrary (perhaps
# dynamic) level.
#
# 1. Message in block.
#
#      logger.fatal { "Argument 'foo' not given." }
#
# 2. Message as a string.
#
#      logger.error "Argument #{ @foo } mismatch."
#
# 3. With progname.
#
#      logger.info('initialize') { "Initializing..." }
#
# 4. With severity.
#
#      logger.add(Logger::FATAL) { 'Fatal error!' }
#
# === How to close a logger
#
#      logger.close
#
# === Setting severity threshold
#
# 1. Original interface.
#
#      logger.level = Logger::WARN
#
# 2. Log4r (somewhat) compatible interface.
#
#      logger.level = Logger::INFO
#
#      DEBUG < INFO < WARN < ERROR < FATAL < UNKNOWN
#
#
# == Format
#
# Log messages are rendered in the output stream in a certain format.  The
# default format and a sample are shown below:
#
# Log format:
#   SeverityID, [Date Time mSec #pid] SeverityLabel -- ProgName: message
#
# Log sample:
#   I, [Wed Mar 03 02:34:24 JST 1999 895701 #19074]  INFO -- Main: info.
#
# You may change the date and time format in this manner:
# 
#   logger.datetime_format = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
#         # e.g. "2004-01-03 00:54:26"
#
# There is currently no supported way to change the overall format, but you may
# have some luck hacking the Format constant.

  #
  # === Args
  #
  # +logdev+::
  #   The log device.  This is a filename (String) or IO object (typically
  #   +STDOUT+, +STDERR+, or an open file).
  # +shift_age+::
  #   Number of old log files to keep, *or* frequency of rotation (+daily+,
  #   +weekly+ or +monthly+).
  # +shift_size+::
  #   Maximum logfile size (only applies when +shift_age+ is a number).
  #
  # === Description
  #
  # Create an instance.  See Logger::LogDevice.new for more information if
  # required.

  #
  # === Synopsis
  # 
  #   Logger#add(severity, message = nil, progname = nil) { ... }
  #
  # === Args
  #
  # +severity+::
  #   Severity.  Constants are defined in Logger namespace: +DEBUG+, +INFO+,
  #   +WARN+, +ERROR+, +FATAL+, or +UNKNOWN+.
  # +message+::
  #   The log message.  A String or Exception.
  # +progname+::
  #   Program name string.  Can be omitted.  Treated as a message if no +message+ and
  #   +block+ are given.
  # +block+::
  #   Can be omitted.  Called to get a message string if +message+ is nil.
  #
  # === Return
  #
  # +true+ if successful, +false+ otherwise.
  #
  # When the given severity is not high enough (for this particular logger), log
  # no message, and return +true+.
  #
  # === Description
  #
  # Log a message if the given severity is high enough.  This is the generic
  # logging method.  Users will be more inclined to use #debug, #info, #warn,
  # #error, and #fatal.
  #
  # <b>Message format</b>: +message+ can be any object, but it has to be
  # converted to a String in order to log it.  Generally, +inspect+ is used
  # if the given object is not a String.
  # A special case is an +Exception+ object, which will be printed in detail,
  # including message, class, and backtrace.  See #msg2str for the
  # implementation if required.
  #
  # === Bugs
  #
  # * Logfile is not locked.
  # * Append open does not need to lock file.
  # * But on the OS which supports multi I/O, records possibly be mixed.

  #   logger.info "Waiting for input from user"

  #   logger.info { "User typed #{input}" }
