+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is the logging framework for Object::Remote implemented as a subclass of
+L<Log::Contextual> with a slightly incompatible API. This system allows
+developers using Object::Remote and end users of that software to control
+Object::Remote logging so operation can be tracked if needed. This is also
+the API used to generate log messages inside the Object::Remote source code.
+
+The rest of the logging system comes from L<Object::Remote::Logging::Logger>
+which implements log rendering and output and L<Object::Remote::Logging::Router>
+which delivers log events to the loggers.
+
+=head1 EXPORTABLE SUBROUTINES
+
+=over 4
+
+=item arg_levels
+
+Returns an array reference that contains the ordered list of level names
+with the lowest log level first and the highest log level last.
+
+=item router
+
+Returns the instance of L<Object::Remote::Logging::Router> that is in use. The router
+instance is used in combination with L<Object::Remote::Logging::Logger> objects to
+select then render and output log messages.
+
+=item log_<level> and Dlog_<level>
+
+These methods come direct from L<Log::Contextual>; see that documentation for a
+complete reference. For each of the log level names there are subroutines with the log_
+and Dlog_ prefix that will generate the log message. The first argument is a code block
+that returns the log message contents and the optional further arguments are both passed
+to the block as the argument list and returned from the log method as a list.
+
+ log_trace { "A fine log message $_[0] " } 'if I do say so myself';
+ $hashref = Dlog_trace { "Very handy: $_" } { foo => 'bar' };
+
+=item logS_<level> and DlogS_<level>
+
+Works just like log_ and Dlog_ except returns only the first argument as a scalar value.
+
+ my $beverage = log_info { "Customer ordered $_[0]" } 'Coffee';
+
+=item Elog_<level>
+
+Log an event and then generate an exception by calling die() with the log message.
+
+ Elog_error { "Could not open file: $!" };
+
+=item Flog_<level>
+
+Log the event, generate a warning with the log message, then call exit(). The exit
+value will default to 1 or can be specified as an argument.
+
+ Flog_fatal { 'Could not lock resource' } 3;

+
+=head1 LEVEL NAMES
+
+Object::Remote uses an ordered list of log level names with the minimum level
+first and the maximum level last. The list of level names can be accessed via
+the arg_levels method which is exportable to the consumer of this class. The log
+level names are:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item trace
+
+As much information about operation as possible including multiple line dumps of
+large content. Tripple verbose operation (-v -v -v).
+
+=item debug
+
+Messages about operations that could hang as well as internal state changes,
+results from method invocations, and information useful when looking for faults.
+Double verbose operation (-v -v).
+
+=item verbose
+
+Additional optional messages to the user that can be enabled at their will. Single
+verbose operation (-v).
+
+=item info
+
+Messages from normal operation that are intended to be displayed to the end
+user if quiet operation is not indicated and more verbose operation is not
+in effect.
+
+=item warn
+
+Something wasn't supposed to happen but did. Operation was not impacted but
+otherwise the event is noteworthy. Single quiet operation (-q).
+
+=item error
+
+Something went wrong. Operation of the system may continue but some operation
+has most definitely failed. Double quiet operation (-q -q).
+
+=item fatal
+
+Something went wrong and recovery is not possible. The system should stop operating
+as soon as possible. Tripple quiet operation (-q -q -q).

+
+=head1 ENVIRONMENT
+
+=over 4
+
+=item OBJECT_REMOTE_LOG_LEVEL
+
+By default Object::Remote will generate log events but messages will not be
+output to STDERR. If there is a defined value for this variable then logs will
+be sent to STDERR if they are at this level or higher.
+
+=item OBJECT_REMOTE_LOG_FORMAT
+
+If logging output is enabled and this value is defined then the logger will
+use this format string instead of the default '[%l %r] %s'; See
+L<Object::Remote::Logging::Logger> for documentation on the format string.
+
+=item OBJECT_REMOTE_LOG_SELECTIONS
+
+By default Object::Remote log output will only be enabled for messages generated inside
+Object::Remote packages. If logs should be generated for other log messages instead of just
+Object::Remote messages set this variable to the names of any Object::Remote::Logging subclass or
+Object::Remote::Logging itself seperated by a space. To output all logs generated set the value
+to *.
+
+=item OBJECT_REMOTE_LOG_FORWARDING
+
+Object::Remote can forward log events from the remote Perl interpreter to the local Perl
+interpreter in a transparent way. Currently this feature is disabled by default but
+that will change Really Soon Now(TM); to enable it set the variable to '1'.
