logging version 0.9.5  
by Tim P.  
[http://logging.rubyforge.org/](http://logging.rubyforge.org/)

== DESCRIPTION

Logging is a flexible logging library for use in Ruby programs based on  
the  
design of Java’s log4j library. It features a hierarchical logging  
system,  
custom level names, multiple output destinations per log event, custom  
formatting, and more.

== CHANGES

2 minor enhancements

- The pattern layout can output the current thread name  
if set using Thread.current[:name] [valodzka]
- Added buffered logging to all IO based loggers  
(console, file, rolling file)  
1 bug fix
- Uncaught TimeoutError in the e-mail appender

It would be nice to see comparison of Logging and Log4r.

/me makes mental note to write up a blog post … after I create the  
blog. Maybe there is some nice static website generation software out  
there I could use; something that supports blogs … hmmm

not tried it, but jekyll looks quite interesting:

Does this work in Rails 2.2.2? I tried actually, but it throwing an  
error looking for Rails 2.3 bare bones.

Odd. Logging does not have a runtime dependency on Mr Bones. However,  
you can silence the warning by installing Mr Bones …

sudo gem install bones

That should fix the problem.
