Class NullTracer

java.lang.Object

de.christofreichardt.diagnosis.AbstractTracer

de.christofreichardt.diagnosis.NullTracer

Direct Known Subclasses:

JDKLoggingRouter, LogbackRouter

public class NullTracer
extends AbstractTracer

Instances of this tracer type don't trace anything and therefore need not to manage any method stacks. This fast tracer may be used at production time. Derived classes should be made final and may override the logException()- and logMessage()-methods by connecting to an alternative logging system.
