90at C<error> priority. 109messages at C<error> priority. The NOTE column tries to provide some
110rationale on how to chose a logging level.
91 111
112As a rough guideline, levels 1..3 are primarily meant for users of the
113program (admins, staff), and are the only ones logged to STDERR by
114default. Levels 4..6 are meant for users and developers alike, while
115levels 7..9 are usually meant for developers.
116
92You can normally only log a single message at highest priority level 117You can normally only log a message once at highest priority level (C<1>,
93(C<1>, C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the 118C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the program - so
94program - so use it sparingly :) 119use it sparingly :)
120
121For example, a program that finds an unknown switch on the commandline
122might well use a fatal logging level to tell users about it - the "system"
123in this case would be the program, or module.
95 124
96Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none> 125Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>
97or C<all> - these are only valid in the methods they are documented for. 126or C<all> - these are only valid for the methods that documented them.

446By default, C<AnyEvent::Log> will use C<AE::now>, i.e. the cached
447eventloop time, for the log timestamps. After calling this function with a
448true value it will instead resort to C<AE::time>, i.e. fetch the current
449time on each log message. This only makes a difference for event loops
450that actually cache the time (such as L<EV> or L<AnyEvent::Loop>).
451
452This setting can be changed at any time by calling this function.
453
454Since C<AnyEvent::Log> has to work even before the L<AnyEvent> has been
455initialised, this switch will also decide whether to use C<CORE::time> or
456C<Time::HiRes::time> when logging a message before L<AnyEvent> becomes
457available.

738
739Caps the maximum priority to the given level, for all messages logged
740to, or passing through, this context. That is, while this doesn't affect
741whether a message is logged or passed on, the maximum priority of messages
742will be limited to the specified level - messages with a higher priority
743will be set to the specified priority.
744
745Another way to view this is that C<< ->level >> filters out messages with
746a too low priority, while C<< ->cap >> modifies messages with a too high
747priority.
748
749This is useful when different log targets have different interpretations
750of priority. For example, for a specific command line program, a wrong
751command line switch might well result in a C<fatal> log message, while the
752same message, logged to syslog, is likely I<not> fatal to the system or
753syslog facility as a whole, but more likely a mere C<error>.
754
755This can be modeled by having a stderr logger that logs messages "as-is"
756and a syslog logger that logs messages with a level cap of, say, C<error>,
757or, for truly system-critical components, actually C<critical>.
