com.bankframe.services.logger
Class ELoggerFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.bankframe.services.logger.ELoggerFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:

ConsoleLoggerFactory, LOG4JLoggerFactory

public abstract class ELoggerFactory
extends Object

This class is the base class for all ELogger factory classes.

Usage

Calling classes which want to obtain an ELogger instance should call getLogger(String) as follows:

   import com.bankframe.services.logger.ELogger;
   import com.bankframe.services.logger.ELoggerFactory;

   public class Foo {

      private static final ELogger log = ELoggerFactory.getLogger(Foo.class);
      ...
   }
 

Configuring the logging implementation

The actual factory implementation used to create logger instances is configured via the com.eontec.mca.elogger.factory Java Property. This setting should specifiy the full class name of an ELoggerFactory subclass. If none is defined then the com.bankframe.services.logger.console.ConsoleLoggerFactory will be used as a default.

Developing a custom logging implementation

To provide a custom logging implementation you must carry out the following steps:

• Provide a class that implements com.bankframe.services.logger.ELogger and its nested interface com.bankframe.services.logger.ELogger.Context
• Provide a class that extends com.bankframe.services.logger.ELoggerFactory. This sub-class must provide an implementation of the createLogger(String) method that returns an initialized instance of the ELogger implementation defined during the previous step.
• Finally configure the custom implementation to be used as described in the previous section

Method Detail

getLogger

public static ELogger getLogger()

Deprecated. Use getLogger(String) or getLogger(Class) instead

This method returns the default logger

getLogger

public static ELogger getLogger(Class subsystem)

This method returns a logger for the specified subsystem. If the logging system does not support the concept of subsystems or no such subsystem is configured then the default logger will be returned.

Parameters:

subsystem - The logging subystem to be used

Returns:

ELogger instance

getLogger

public static ELogger getLogger(String subsystem)

This method returns a logger for the specified subsystem. If the logging system does not support the concept of subsystems or no such subsystem is configured then the default logger will be returned.

Parameters:

subsystem - The logging subystem to be used

Returns:

ELogger instance

main

public static void main(String[] args)
