LogRecord

extends Object
implements Serializable
java.lang.Object
   ↳ java.util.logging.LogRecord

Class Overview

A LogRecord object represents a logging request. It is passed between the logging framework and individual logging handlers. Client applications should not modify a LogRecord object that has been passed into the logging framework.

The LogRecord class will infer the source method name and source class name the first time they are accessed if the client application didn't specify them explicitly. This automatic inference is based on the analysis of the call stack and is not guaranteed to be precise. Client applications should force the initialization of these two fields by calling getSourceClassName or getSourceMethodName if they expect to use them after passing the LogRecord object to another thread or transmitting it over RMI.

Public Constructors

public LogRecord (Level level, String msg)

Constructs a LogRecord object using the supplied the logging level and message. The millis property is set to the current time. The sequence property is set to a new unique value, allocated in increasing order within the virtual machine. The thread ID is set to a unique value for the current thread. All other properties are set to null.

Parameters
level the logging level, may not be null.
msg the raw message.
Throws
NullPointerException if level is null.

Public Methods

public Level getLevel ()

Gets the logging level.

Returns
  • the logging level.

public String getLoggerName ()

Gets the name of the logger.

Returns
  • the logger name.

public String getMessage ()

Gets the raw message.

Returns
  • the raw message, may be null.

public long getMillis ()

Gets the time when this event occurred, in milliseconds since 1970.

Returns
  • the time when this event occurred, in milliseconds since 1970.

public Object[] getParameters ()

Gets the parameters.

Returns
  • the array of parameters or null if there are no parameters.

public ResourceBundle getResourceBundle ()

Gets the resource bundle used to localize the raw message during formatting.

Returns
  • the associated resource bundle, null if none is available or the message is not localizable.

public String getResourceBundleName ()

Gets the name of the resource bundle.

Returns
  • the name of the resource bundle, null if none is available or the message is not localizable.

public long getSequenceNumber ()

Gets the sequence number.

Returns
  • the sequence number.

public String getSourceClassName ()

Gets the name of the class that is the source of this log record. This information can be changed, may be null and is untrusted.

Returns
  • the name of the source class of this log record (possiblity null)

public String getSourceMethodName ()

Gets the name of the method that is the source of this log record.

Returns
  • the name of the source method of this log record.

public int getThreadID ()

Gets a unique ID of the thread originating the log record. Every thread becomes a different ID.

Notice : the ID doesn't necessary map the OS thread ID

Returns
  • the ID of the thread originating this log record.

public Throwable getThrown ()

Gets the Throwable object associated with this log record.

Returns
  • the Throwable object associated with this log record.

public void setLevel (Level level)

Sets the logging level.

Parameters
level the level to set.
Throws
NullPointerException if level is null.

public void setLoggerName (String loggerName)

Sets the name of the logger.

Parameters
loggerName the logger name to set.

public void setMessage (String message)

Sets the raw message. When this record is formatted by a logger that has a localization resource bundle that contains an entry for message, then the raw message is replaced with its localized version.

Parameters
message the raw message to set, may be null.

public void setMillis (long millis)

Sets the time when this event occurred, in milliseconds since 1970.

Parameters
millis the time when this event occurred, in milliseconds since 1970.

Sets the parameters.

Parameters
parameters the array of parameters to set, may be null.

public void setResourceBundle (ResourceBundle resourceBundle)

Sets the resource bundle.

Parameters
resourceBundle the resource bundle to set, may be null.

public void setResourceBundleName (String resourceBundleName)

Sets the name of the resource bundle.

Parameters
resourceBundleName the name of the resource bundle to set.

public void setSequenceNumber (long sequenceNumber)

Sets the sequence number. It is usually not necessary to call this method to change the sequence number because the number is allocated when this instance is constructed.

Parameters
sequenceNumber the sequence number to set.

public void setSourceClassName (String sourceClassName)

Sets the name of the class that is the source of this log record.

Parameters
sourceClassName the name of the source class of this log record, may be null.

Sets the name of the method that is the source of this log record.

Parameters
sourceMethodName the name of the source method of this log record, may be null.

public void setThreadID (int threadID)

Sets the ID of the thread originating this log record.

Parameters
threadID the new ID of the thread originating this log record.

public void setThrown (Throwable thrown)

Sets the Throwable object associated with this log record.

Parameters
