Any logger created before calling logging.config.dictCOnfig is not configured

Show key headers only | View raw

It seems like that any logger I create BEFORE calling
logging.config.dictConfig does not get configured.

Meanwhile, if I configure the logger like I always have, by just setting
handlers on root, everything works fine, including the loggers that were
created BEFORE I configure logging.

I make a lot of module-level log instances.

I wrote a simple script to show my problem.  Run it like:

    $ python scratch.py code

and then

    $ python scratch.py dict

and see how the logging output is different.
