Class AndHowLog

java.lang.Object

org.yarnandtail.andhow.util.AndHowLog

public class AndHowLog
extends Object

A simple wrapper around the java.util.Logging utility that makes it behave like SLF4J, including more use of standard message formatting. Methods that take Object... arguments use curly brace replacement, ie:
debug("Hello {}, Welcome to logging", "Carl");,
Logs: Hello Carl, Welcome to logging
See https://www.slf4j.org/apidocs/index.html for complete examples. Configuration of logging levels happens can be done in three ways:

• Explicitly calling setLevel() on a AndHowLog instance
• Setting a System property of the form [canonical name of class being logged].level=[Level name]|Level number]. Note that these System properties are read at the time of construction. If modified for a particular logger, reloadLogLevel() must be called on the AndHowLog to pick up the change.
• Finally, the file based mechanism used by java.util.logging.LogManager is used, however, this mechanism is impractical for most application level logging configurations.

Method Detail

getLogger

public static AndHowLog getLogger(Class<?> clazz)

getLogger

public static AndHowLog getLogger(Class<?> clazz,
                                  Handler handler)

setLevel

public void setLevel(Level newLevel)
              throws SecurityException

Assigns a log level. This AndHowLog accepts System properties to assign a log level. Explicitly setting a null Level will re-read the level specified in Sys props, or if non, default to the java.util.AndHowLog interpretation of null.

Parameters:

newLevel -

Throws:

SecurityException

getHandlers

public Handler[] getHandlers()

addHandler

public void addHandler(Handler handler)

removeHandler

public void removeHandler(Handler handler)

isLoggable

public boolean isLoggable(Level level)

Check if a message of the given level would actually be logged by this logger. This check is based on the Loggers effective level, which may be inherited from its parent.

Parameters:

level - a message logging level

Returns:

true if the given message level is currently being logged.
