Log::Dispatch::Syslog - Object for logging to system log.

       Dave Rolsky <autarch@urth.org>

       The constructor takes the following parameters in addition to the standard parameters documented in
       Log::Dispatch::Output:

       •   ident ($)

           This string will be prepended to all messages in the system log. Defaults to $0.

       •   logopt ($)

           A  string  containing  the  log options (separated by any separator you like). See the openlog(3) and
           Sys::Syslog docs for more details. Defaults to ''.

       •   facility ($)

           Specifies what type of program is doing the logging to the system  log.  Valid  options  are  'auth',
           'authpriv',  'cron',  'daemon',  'kern',  'local0' through 'local7', 'mail, 'news', 'syslog', 'user',
           'uucp'. Defaults to 'user'

       •   socket ($, \@, or \%)

           Tells what type of  socket  to  use  for  sending  syslog  messages.  Valid  options  are  listed  in
           "Sys::Syslog".

           If  you  don't  provide  this,  then  we  let  "Sys::Syslog" simply pick one that works, which is the
           preferred option, as it makes your code more portable.

           If you pass an array reference, it is dereferenced and passed to "Sys::Syslog::setlogsock()".

           If you pass a hash reference, it is passed to "Sys::Syslog::setlogsock()" as is.

       •   lock ($)

           If this is set to a true value, then  the  calls  to  "setlogsock()",  "openlog()",  "syslog()",  and
           "closelog()" will all be guarded by a thread-locked variable.

           This  is only relevant when running you are using Perl threads in your application. Setting this to a
           true value will cause the threads and threads::shared modules to be loaded.

           This defaults to false.

       This module provides a simple object for sending messages to the system log (via UNIX syslog calls).

       Note that logging may fail if you try to pass UTF-8 characters in the log message. If logging fails and
       warnings are enabled, the error message will be output using Perl's "warn".
