require 'monitor'
# == 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.
# you can use to output messages.
#
# 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:
# The messages have associated levels, such as +INFO+ or +ERROR+ that indicate
# their importance. You can then give the Logger a level, and only messages
# at that level of higher will be printed.
#
# The levels are:
#
# +FATAL+:: an unhandleable error that results in a program crash
# +ERROR+:: a handleable error condition

# +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

# The block form allows you to create potentially complex log messages,
# but to delay their evaluation until and unless the message is
# logged. For example, if we have the following:
#
# logger.debug { "This is a " + potentially + " expensive operation" }
#
# If the logger's level is +INFO+ or higher, no debug messages will be logged,
# and the entire block will not even be evaluated. Compare to this:
#
# logger.debug("This is a " + potentially + " expensive operation")
#
# Here, the string concatenation is done every time, even if the log
# level is not set to show the debug message.
