bionic (3) Log::Agent::Stamping.3pm.gz

NAME

       Log::Agent::Stamping - time-stamping routines

SYNOPSIS

        Not intended to be used directly

DESCRIPTION

       This package contains routines to generate the leading time-stamping on logged messages.  Formats are
       identified by a name, and the stamping_fn() function converts that name into a CODE ref, defaulting to
       the "own" format when given an unknown name.

       Here are the known formats:

        date      "[Fri Oct 22 16:23:10 1999]"
        none
        own       "99/10/22 16:23:10"
        syslog    "Oct 22 16:23:10"

       Channels or Drivers which take a "-stampfmt" switch expect either a string giving the format name (e.g.
       "date"), or a CODE ref.  That referenced routine will be called every time we need to compute a time
       stamp.  It should not expect any parameter, and should return a stamping string.
