Newbie Moose，MooseX :: Storage和MooseX :: Log4Perl问题：无法存储对象

Question

I'm writing my first moose base program. The program creates a "state" object that is a composition of several other moose objects. At the end of the program, I wish to save the "state" object to a file. I'm attempting to use MooseX::Storage to do this. I get an error (below) that implies to me that it is trying to serialize the MooseX::Log::Log4perl object.

Object (Log::Log4perl::Logger=HASH(0x2211c800)) does not have a &pack method, cannot collapse at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/MooseX/Storage/Engine.pm line 205

Here's my setup. I have a class called "ScanCtr::ScanMe" and it does only this:

package ScanCtr::ScanMe;
use Moose;
with 'MooseX::Log::Log4perl';
use namespace::autoclean;
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy);
BEGIN {
    Log::Log4perl->easy_init({
        level   => $DEBUG,
        file    => ">>/var/log/sc.log",
        layout  => '%d %p [%P] %l %m%n',
    });
};
1;

My other objects including extend this object (which may be my problem) so I can do stuff like $self->log->debug("debug message"); within each of my objects. For example:

package ScanCtr::State;
use ScanCtr::Request;
use Moose;
extends 'ScanCtr::ScanMe';
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
use MooseX::Storage;
our $VERSION = '0.01';
with Storage ( 'format' => 'JSON', 'io' => 'File');
use namespace::autoclean;


has 'requests'          => (
    traits  => [ 'Hash' ],
    is      => 'rw',
    isa     => 'HashRef[ScanCtr::Request]',
    default => sub { {} },
    handles => {
        count           => 'count',
        get             => 'get',
        set             => 'set',
        delete_request  => 'delete',
        request_keys    => 'keys',
        kv              => 'kv',
    }
);
1;

So is there a way to exclude the MooseX::Log::Log4perl from the Storage? Is there a better approach that will avoid this problem? What other newbie mistakes am I making?

Thanks for any help, Todd.

This should work (but I haven't tested it). Inside ScanCtr::ScanMe you need to override the Logger attribute and apply the DoNotSerialize trait from MooseX::Storage .

package ScanCtr::ScanMe;
use Moose;
with 'MooseX::Log::Log4perl';
use namespace::autoclean;
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy);
BEGIN {
    Log::Log4perl->easy_init({
        level   => $DEBUG,
        file    => ">>/var/log/sc.log",
        layout  => '%d %p [%P] %l %m%n',
    });
};

has '+logger' => { traits => ['DoNotSerialize'] };
