[Python-Dev] Stdlib Logging questions (PEP 337 SoC) (original) (raw)

py.asyncore.dispatcher.hits py.asyncore.dispatcher.messages

These handler names seem really specific, though. Why have 'dispatcher' in there?

The existing logging that she is replacing is done through methods of the dispatcher class. The dispatcher class is only a portion of the whole module.

Part of Jackilyn's task should be to refine and improve the PEP.

Agreed.

Logging is probably irrelevant for many modules, but which ones are those? What conventions should be followed for handler names? Etc...

Are you suggesting that the logging module should ship with a standard configuration that does something specific for py.* loggers? Or even one that has different handlers for different stdlib modules?

I had assumed this would be considered too intrusive a change. If no one chimes in, then I'll ask her to put at least investigating this into at least the second half of the summer.
