Rails - Dec 2005 - Access rails logger from plain class

How can I "get" the rails logger from a plain class, that is a class 
that does not inherit from a rails class?

I have tried using RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER (see below) but it''s nil

class MyClass

  logger = RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER

  def myMethod
    logger.debug("stuff...")
  end

end

Hi !

In #myMethod, Ruby will resolve logger as a local variable, which is
nil.  What you should do instead is:

class MyClass
  def logger
    RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER
  end

  def myMethod
    logger.debug "stuff"
  end
end

Hope that helps !

Thanks working now.

Another logger question
"HowtoAccessTheLogFile" on the RoR wiki shows RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER
setup
in environment.rb but I can''t see it in my environment.rb. Has this 
changed? I have rails v1.0
