Interface Logger

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    AbstractLogger

    public interface Logger
    Logger interface for logging messages with different severity levels.

    The Logger provides methods to log messages at various levels such as TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, and ERROR. Each level has corresponding methods to check if the level is enabled (isXxxEnabled()) and to log messages either as simple strings, formatted strings, or with associated exceptions.

    Example Usage

    Basic Usage

    
     if (logger.isInfoEnabled()) {
         logger.info("Application started successfully.");
     }
     

    Formatted Logging

    
     String user = "JohnDoe";
     int attempts = 3;
     logger.warn("User '{}' exceeded maximum login attempts: {}", user, attempts);
     

    Logging Exceptions

    
     try {
         // some operation that may fail
     } catch (Exception e) {
         logger.error("An error occurred during processing", e);
     }
     

    Conditional Logging

    
     if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
         logger.debug("Detailed debug information: {}", generateDebugData());
     }

    • Method Detail

      • getName

        java.lang.String getName()
        Return the name of this Logger instance.
        Returns:
        name of this logger instance
      • isTraceEnabled

        boolean isTraceEnabled()
        Is the logger instance enabled for the TRACE level?
        Returns:
        True if this Logger is enabled for the TRACE level, false otherwise.
      • trace

        void trace​(java.lang.String message)
        Log a message at the TRACE level.
        Parameters:
        message - the message string to be logged
      • trace

        void trace​(java.lang.String format,
                   java.lang.Object... arguments)
        Log a message at the TRACE level according to the specified format and arguments.

        This form avoids superfluous string concatenation when the logger is disabled for the TRACE level. However, this variant incurs the hidden (and relatively small) cost of creating an Object[] before invoking the method, even if this logger is disabled for TRACE.

        Parameters:
        format - the format string
        arguments - the arguments
      • trace

        void trace​(java.lang.String message,

        Log an exception (throwable) at the TRACE level with an accompanying message.
        Parameters:
        message - the message accompanying the exception
        t - the exception (throwable) to log
