  Description     : A generic message storing mechanism

Log::Message is a generic message storage mechanism. It allows you to store
messages on a stack -- either shared or private -- and assign meta-data to
it. Some meta-data will automatically be added for you, like a timestamp and
a stack trace, but some can be filled in by the user, like a tag by which to
identify it or group it, and a level at which to handle the message (for
example, log it, or die with it)

Log::Message also provides a powerful way of searching through items by
regexes on messages, tags and level.

This module is being deprecated from the perl base distribution in
5.18.0, so it is planned to package it separately to provide continuity.        The perl 5.18 packages will depend on, recommend or suggest deprecated          modules for one release cycle, as appropriate.
