NAME

       Logger::Simple - Implementation of the Simran-Log-Log and Simran-Error-Error modules

SYNOPSIS

         use Logger::Simple;
         my $log=Logger::Simple->new(LOG=>"/tmp/program.log");
         my $x=5;my $y=4;

         if($x>$y){
           $log->write("\$x is greater than \$y");
         }

DESCRIPTION

       new  "my $log=Logger::Simple->new(LOG=>"/tmp/logfile");"

            The  new  method  creates  the Logger::Simple object as an inside-out object. The Log parameter is a
            mandatory one that must be passed to the  object  at  creation,  or  the  object  will  fail.   Upon
            creation, this method will also call the open_log method which opens the log file.

       write
            "$log->write("This is an error message");"

            This method will write a message to the logfile, and will update the internal HISTORY array.

       retrieve_history
            "my @history = $log->retrieve_history;" "my $msg = $log->retrieve_history;"

            When  called  in  scalar context, it will return the last message written to the HISTORY array. When
            called in a list context, it will return the entire HISTORY array

       clear_history
            "$log->clear_history;"

            This method will clear the internal HISTORY array

EXPORT

       None by default.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

       This module is based on the Simran::Log::Log and Simran::Error::Error  modules.  I  liked  the  principle
       behind them, but felt that the interface could be a bit better.

       My thanks also goes out once again to Damian Conway for Object Oriented Perl, and also to Sam Tregar, for
       his book "Writing Perl Modules for CPAN". Both were invaluable references for me.

       I  would  also  like  to  thank Jerry Heden for his Object::InsideOut module, which I used to create this
       module.
