Class LogFormatter

java.lang.Object
  java.util.logging.Formatter
      com.sun.sgs.impl.sharedutil.logging.LogFormatter

public class LogFormatter
extends Formatter

Defines a logging Formatter that uses a compact date and time format that includes milliseconds, permits the date and time format to be customized, and allows suppressing stack traces for exceptions.

This class recognizes the following LogManager configuration properties:

Property: "com.sun.sgs.impl.sharedutil.logging.LogFormatter.time.format"
Default: "%tF %1$tT.%1$tL"

Specifies the format string that will be used in a call to Formatter.format to display the date and time of a logging call. The argument to the format call will be a long representing the current time in milliseconds. The default prints the time in the format 2008-02-14 11:52:59.679.

Property: "com.sun.sgs.impl.sharedutil.logging.LogFormatter.print.stack"
Default: true

Specifies whether to print stack traces when formatting a log record that contains an exception.

For example, to use this class to format logging output to the console so that it prints the time in milliseconds since the epoch and does not include stack traces, put the following text in the logging configuration file:

   .level=INFO
   handlers=java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
   java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter=com.sun.sgs.impl.sharedutil.logging.LogFormatter
   com.sun.sgs.impl.sharedutil.logging.LogFormatter.time.format=%tQ
   com.sun.sgs.impl.sharedutil.logging.LogFormatter.print.stack=false
