Class LoggerFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.sibvisions.util.log.LoggerFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:

JdkLoggerFactory

public abstract class LoggerFactory
extends Object

The LoggerFactory is a factory for creating ILogger instances, for the configured log technology. To use the configured log factory implement the following call in your starter:

LoggerFactory.init("com.package.log.MyLoggerFactory");

Later you can create an ILogger instance and use it as follows:

ILogger logger = LoggerFactory.getInstance("com.project.MyWindow");
logger.debug("My first log message!"); .

static ILogger.LogLevel	getLevel(Class pClass) Gets the level of a specific logger.
static ILogger.LogLevel	getLevel(String pName) Gets the level of a specific logger.
static List<ILogger>	getLogger() Gets all created logger instances.
abstract void	init() Initializes the factory instance.
static void	init(String pClassName) Creates a new instance of LoggerFactory.
static void	setLevel(Class pClass, ILogger.LogLevel pLevel) Sets the level of a specific logger.

Invisible constructor, because the LoggerFactory is a utility class.

Method Detail

createLogger

public abstract ILogger createLogger(String pName)

Gets an ILogger.

Parameters:

pName - the name for which a logger should be returned/created

Returns:

the ILogger implementation

init

public abstract void init()

Initializes the factory instance.

init

public static void init(String pClassName)

Creates a new instance of LoggerFactory. If the pClassName was not found then the JdkLoggerFactory will be instantiated.

Parameters:

pClassName - the log factory implementation

getInstance

public static ILogger getInstance(Class pClass)

Construct (if necessary) and return an ILogger instance, using the factory's current set of configuration attributes.

Parameters:

pClass - the class for which a logger should be returned/created

Returns:

the logger for the specified class

Throws:

RuntimeException - if the log factory was not initialized

Parameters:

pName - the name for which a logger should be returned/created

Returns:

the logger for the specified class

Throws:

RuntimeException - if the log factory was not initialized

setLevel

public static void setLevel(Class pClass,
