Instance Method Details

#_zk_logger_name ⇒ Object

Returns a predictable logger name for the current module or class. If used within an anonymous class, the first non-anonymous class name will be used as the logger name. If used within a meta-class, the name of the actual class will be used as the logger name. If used within an anonymous module, the string ‘anonymous’ will be returned.
