Log::Fine::Handle - Controls where to send logging output

Sets up an output handle for log messages

    use Log::Fine;
    use Log::Fine::Handle;

    # instantiate the handle (default values shown)
    my $handle = Log::Fine::Handle::Foo
        ->new( name      => "foo0",
               mask      => Log::Fine::Handle->DEFAULT_LOGMASK,
               formatter => Log::Fine::Formatter:Basic->new() );

    # see if a handle is loggable at a given level
    my $rc = $handle->isLoggable(INFO);

    # write a message
    $handle->msgWrite(INFO, "Informational message", 1);

A Log::Fine::Handle object controls where to send formatted log messages. The destination can be a file, syslog, a database table, or simply to output. Message formatting is then handled by a formatter object.
