Method: Puppet::Util::Logging#log_exception

Defined in:
lib/puppet/util/logging.rb

#log_exception(exception, message = :default, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Log an exception via Puppet.err. Will also log the backtrace if Puppet is set. Parameters:

exception

an Exception to log

message

an optional String overriding the message to be logged; by default, we log Exception.message.

If you pass a String here, your string will be logged instead.  You may also pass nil if you don't
wish to log a message at all; in this case it is likely that you are only calling this method in order
to take advantage of the backtrace logging.
