Log::NullLogLite - The "Log::NullLogLite" class implements the Null Object pattern for the "Log::LogLite"

Author

       Rani Pinchuk, rani@cpan.org

Constructor

       new ( FILEPATH [,LEVEL [,DEFAULT_MESSAGE ]] )
           The constructor. The parameters will not have any affect.  Returns the new Log::NullLogLite object.

Description

       The "Log::NullLogLite" class is derived from the "Log::LogLite" class and implement the Null Object
       Pattern to let us to use the "Log::LogLite" class with null "Log::LogLite" objects.  We might want to do
       that if we use a "Log::LogLite" object in our code, and we do not want always to actually define a
       "Log::LogLite" object (i.e. not always we want to write to a log file). In such a case we will create a
       "Log::NullLogLite" object instead of the "Log::LogLite" object, and will use that object instead.  The
       object has all the methods that the "Log::LogLite" object has, but those methods do nothing. Thus our
       code will continue to run without any change, yet we will not have to define a log file path for the
       "Log::LogLite" object, and no log will be created.

Methods

       write( MESSAGE [, LEVEL ] )
           Does nothing. The parameters will not have any affect.  Returns nothing.

       level( [ LEVEL ] )
           Does nothing. The parameters will not have any affect.  Returns -1.

       default_message( [ MESSAGE ] )
           Does nothing. The parameters will not have any affect.  Returns empty string ("").

Name
