SYNOPSIS

     use Log::Dispatch::ArrayWithLimits;
    
     my $file = Log::Dispatch::ArrayWithLimits(
         min_level     => 'info',
         array         => $ary,    # default: [], you can always refer by name e.g. 'My::array' to refer to @My::array
         max_elems     => 100,     # defaults unlimited
     );
    
     $file->log(level => 'info', message => "Your comment\n");

DESCRIPTION

    This module functions similarly to Log::Dispatch::Array, with a few
    differences:

      * only the messages (strings) are stored

      * allow specifying array variable name (e.g. "My::array" instead of
      \@My:array)

      This makes it possible to use in Log::Log4perl configuration, which
      is a text file.

      * can apply some limits

      Currently only max_elems (the maximum number of elements in the
      array) is available. Future limits will be added.

    Logging to an in-process array can be useful when debugging/testing, or
    when you want to let users of your program connect to your program to
    request viewing the ogs being produced.

METHODS

 new(%args)

    Constructor. This method takes a hash of parameters. The following
    options are valid: min_level and max_level (see Log::Dispatch
    documentation); array (a reference to an array, or if value is string,
    will be taken as name of array variable; this is so this module can be
    used/configured e.g. by Log::Log4perl because configuration is
    specified via a text file), max_elems.

 log_message(message => STR)

    Send a message to the appropriate output. Generally this shouldn't be
    called directly but should be called through the log() method (in
    LLog::Dispatch::Output>).
