Fellow monks
I want to provide operations at my current company with a detailed log about parameters seen and parsed, and about data read from or written to the database. This is for day-by-day operations to support user problems, and figure out what happened to the system during determined interesting events.
Currently, the code uses Data::Dumper as dumping tool, for logging purposes. I see this as a bad thing and would like to remove this from the code: Data::Dumper is supposed to be used for debugging purposes, not for day-by-day operations, I think.
Of course, I don't know everything. I would like to know from the fellow monks what they use to pretty print complex deep data structures from source code, and what do they recommend as a good strategy to achieve good results.
Thanks you all for commenting.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
