Method Detail

log

public void log(LogEntry entry)
         throws LogException

Sends a log request to the Log Server without waiting for a response. Using this method instead of LogAndWait() can improve performance, because the extra step of insuring the Log Server reeived the request is not performed.

Throws:

LogException

logAsynchronously

public void logAsynchronously(LogEntry entry)
                       throws LogException

Queues up a log request to send to the Log Server asynchronously and without waiting for a response. Using this method instead of log() or LogAndWait() can improve performance by preventing the Logging API from holding onto the thread while sending the log entry.

Throws:

LogException

logAndWait

public boolean logAndWait(LogEntry entry)
                   throws LogException

Sends a log request to the Log Server and reads the response.

Returns:

true if the Log Server successfully logged the entry.

Throws:

LogException
