Log::Fine::Formatter::Detailed - Formatter for detailed logging

Formats log messages for output in a detailed format.

    use Log::Fine::Formatter::Detailed;
    use Log::Fine::Handle::Console;

    # instantiate a handle
    my $handle = Log::Fine::Handle::Console->new();

    # instantiate a formatter
    my $formatter = Log::Fine::Formatter::Detailed
        ->new( name             => 'detail0',
               timestamp_format => "%y-%m-%d %h:%m:%s" );

    # set the formatter
    $handle->formatter( formatter => $formatter );

    # format a msg
    my $str = $formatter->format(INFO, "Resistence is futile", 1);

The detailed formatter logs messages in two different formats, depending on where the log message came from.

If the log message came from a particular class (e.g. MyModule.pm) the detailed formatter will format as follows:

    [TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Package>::Method():<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>

Otherwise, the formatter will return a slightly more basic format:

    [TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Script Name>:<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>

Formats the given message for the given level

* level

Level at which to log (see Log::Fine::Levels)

* message

Message to log

* skip

Controls caller skip level

The formatted text string in the form:

  [TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Package>::Method():<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>

or

  [TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Script Name>:<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>
