Hi,

i'm trying to log to the same file (using logging module) from different classes but i can't seem to get it to work.
File 1 is the main file which sets up the logger and then i want to also
use the same logger in another class
This is what i have


file1
=============================
import logging

class A:
   def __init__(self):
        self.logger = logging.getLogger("app_logfile")
        ### stdout handler ###
        self.logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

stream_hld = logging.StreamHandler()
stream_hld.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
stream_formatter =
logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(module)s %(lineno)d %(message)s ')
stream_hld.setFormatter(stream_formatter)
self.logger.addHandler(stream_hld)")
=============================


file2
=============================
import logging

class B:
   def __init__(self):
        self.logger = logging.getLogger("app_logfile")
        self.logger.debug("creating class B")

   def otherfunction(self):
        self.logger.debug("in otherfunction")
=============================

But i get an error:
  AttributeError: B instance has no attribute 'logger'

I was hoping that by requesting a logger with the same name (app_logfile) i would get the setup also and could use the logger straight away. Funny thing is that the use of the logger in the __init__ function of class B works but the call to the logger in otherfunction doesn't work and results in the error above.
Class B is created after class A so the logger object exists already.


Any ideas of what i'm doing wrong and how i can achieve setting up the logger object only once?

Thanks,
Benedict
