2008-12-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>

	* log.man: Extended documentation a bit to tell about the levels
	* log.tcl: which are suppressed by default. Added comment to code
	  to point from the first initialization to the second at the
	  bottom of the file. Fixes [Bug 2418580].

2008-12-17  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

        * logger.tcl: Applied modified patch [RFE 2381524].
	* logger.test: Thanks to Hemang Lavana for the patch.

2008-10-06  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* log.tcl: Bumped version to 1.2.1 for commit on
	* log.man: 2008-09-25 by eee. API change, needs at
	* pkgIndex.tcl: least a patchlevel bump.

2008-09-25  Elchonon Edelson  <eee@users.sourceforge.net>

	* log.tcl: Changed the error message returned by the log::log
	* log.test: function. Instead of saying ""foo" is no unique
	  abbreviation of a level name", it now gives a reasonable
	  error message that lists the valid levels.

2008-06-14  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* log.pcx: New file. Syntax definitions for the public commands of
	  the log package.

2007-03-26  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>

2007-03-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* log.man: Fixed all warnings due to use of now deprecated
	* logger.man: commands. Added a section about how to give
	* loggerUtils.man: feedback.
	* loggerAppender.man:

2007-03-20  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>

	* loggerUtils.tcl: Added MD pragmas regarding ownership of the
	  message files.

2007-02-08  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl: Accepted patch for [SF Tcllib 1599978],
	* logger.man: adding emergency and alert levels to the logger
	* pkgIndex.tcl: package. Raising package version to 0.8,
	even if it is just a rather minor change. But there is a

	**** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ****
	If code uses explicitly 'criticalr' to disable all available loggers
	instead of looking at the highest level in logger::levels, this
	no longer disables all log messages.

2006-10-03  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	*
	* Released and tagged Tcllib 1.9 ========================
	*

2006-09-13  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.test: Moved the tests of the new trace facility to a
	* logger_trace.test: separate file, as they require a newer
	  version of tcltest (2.x), and Tcl 8.4 instead of 8.2.

2006-08-18  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl:        Applied patch [SF Tcllib 1530725] to
	* logger.man:	     add a command trace logging facility to
	* logger.test:       logger. This raises the package version
	* pkgIndex.tcl:      to 0.7.
	* loggerUtils.tcl:    Fixed abbreviated subcommands to use
	* loggerAppender.tcl: the full form.

2006-04-27  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl:   Added a convenience command to fully initialize
	* logger.man:   a namespace for logging (create service, import
	* pkgIndex.tcl: commands, set default logging level)

2006-01-28  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* log.test:    Fixed cleanup of temp. files used by testsuite.
	* logger.test: Fixed usage of duplicate test names.

2006-01-23  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* log.test: More boilerplate simplified via use of test support.
	* logger.test:
	* loggerUtils.test:

2006-01-19  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* loggerUtils.tcl: The utilities require Tcl 8.4, they use
	* loggerUtils.man: 'trace'-APIs not yet present before 8.4.
	* pkgIndex.tcl:

	* log.test: Hooked into the new common test support code.
	* logger.test:
	* loggerUtils.test:

2005-12-02  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl:        Fixed bug [SF Tcllib 1329642]. There
	* logger.man:        is now a new global enabled state.
	* logger.test:       This needed a fix to the loggerUtils
	* pkgIndex.tcl:      testsuit, to set a working default log
	  loggerUtils.test:  level (debug instead of critical).

	**** Potential Incompatibility ****
	New top level logger instances now start with the loglevel set
	by logger::setlevel instead of debug. The default is still
	set to debug.

2005-11-14  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* loggerAppender.man: Fixed small typo in the appender
	  documentation, a reference to the wrong package.

2005-10-11  Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>

	* loggerUtils.tcl: Avoid use of %G in time formats. (not
	                   widely supported in C libraries)

2005-10-06  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	*
	* Released and tagged Tcllib 1.8 ========================
	*

2005-09-28  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>

	* loggerAppender.tcl: Integrated the formatter/appender utilities
	* loggerAppender.man: provided by [SF Tcllib 1267636]. Created
	* loggerUtils.tcl:    doctools based documentation. Fixed mis-
	* loggerUtils.man:    spellings. Moved the utility code into
	* loggerUtils.test:   the namespace "logger::utils". Added the
	* pkgIndex.tcl:       new packages to the package index.

2005-09-23  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.man : Added section about logprocs and their effect
	  on the callstack, including a small example.

2005-05-07  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl  :
	  logger.test :
	  pkgIndex.tcl: Added more tests to the new lvlchangeproc and
	  provided a sane default to the no-op proc to fix a bug reported
	  by Hemang Lavana. Callbacks are now checked to exist before they
	  are allowed or used. Added tests for these checks.
	  Raised package version to 0.6.1.

2005-04-04  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

	* pkgIndex.tcl: Synchronized indexed vs. provided versions of
	  logger.

2005-03-04  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.test :
	  logger.tcl  :
	  logger.man  : Added a test (13.7) for a small glitch in the
	  fix for bug [1102131]. logprocs could be called with
	  too many arguments. Added new lvlchangeproc callback command
	  including tests and docs.

2005-02-18  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.test : Added tests for the clean callstack (14.x)
	  to satisfy RFE 1120152. logger should not appear in the
	  callstacks of the logprocs from now on.

2005-02-09  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>
	* logger.tcl : Added fix for sideeffect of bugfix [1102131].
	  The callstack for a logproc now looks nice again.

2005-01-31  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>
	* logger.test : Added tests for bug [1102131].
	  The logger servicename can not be detected correctly.
	  logger.tcl  : Fix for bug [1102131]. There is
	  still no way for a proc given to logproc to discover
	  the servicename, that requires an extension to the
	  logproc API (extra argument).
	  See the 13.x tests for an example how to get the
	  servicename with the help of the old logproc syntax.

2005-01-12  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl : Fixed bug [1099722]. New children did
	  logger.test: not inherit their parents loglevel if
	  it was set prior to their creation. Added a new test 5.2
	  for this case. Raised package version to 0.5.1.

	  premature end of the string due to unquoted ".

	* logger.tcl: A small fix in the new command [nsExists] for Tcl
	  8.[23]. The condition was revers.

2004-09-23  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl : Added a workaround for non-existing
	  namespace exists in logger::import, so we can
	  stay at Tcl 8.2.

	* logger.tcl : Changed defaults for logger::import,
          logger.man : added a -force option and some more tests

	  argument checking to make the code more robust.

2004-05-26  Michael Schlenker <mic42@users.sourceforge.net>

	* logger.tcl: Fixed bug with enable/disable
	  wrong enabled value was reported if disable critical was used.
	  Added "none" as result for currentloglevel for this situation.
	* logger.test: Added tests 7.1-7.4 to check for the above bug.
	* logger.man: Fixed docs and replaced the nonsensical "or" with
	  the correct "and" in enable/disable docs. Added a comment how
	  to completely disable logging for a service and its children.

	*

2003-04-21  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>

	* loggerperformance.test: Renaming to 'loggerperformance'. This is
	  neither a .tcl file of the package itself, nor does it belong
	  into the testsuite (which is about functionality, not speed). It
