The MDC is a simple thread-specific hash table, in which the application can stuff values under certain keys and retrieve them later via the C<"%X{key}"> placeholder in Cs. =over 4 =item Log::Log4perl::MDC->put($key, $value); Store a value C<$value> under key C<$key> in the map. =item my $value = Log::Log4perl::MDC->get($key); Retrieve the content of the map under the specified key. Typically done by C<%X{key}> in C. If no value exists to the given key, C is returned. =item my $text = Log::Log4perl::MDC->remove(); Delete all entries from the map. =item Log::Log4perl::MDC->get_context(); Returns a reference to the hash table. =back Please note that all of the methods above are class methods, there's no instances of this class. Since the thread model in perl 5.8.0 is "no shared data unless explicitly requested" the data structures used are just global (and therefore thread-specific). =head1 LICENSE Copyright 2002-2013 by Mike Schilli Em@perlmeister.comE and Kevin Goess Ecpan@goess.orgE.
