de.unkrig.commons.util.logging.handler.ArchivingFileHandler

public class ArchivingFileHandler
extends AbstractStreamHandler

A log record handler which writes formatted records to files which are automatically archived.

Initially, the "current log file" is created (or, if it already exists and the "append" option is true, opened in "append" mode), and log records are written to it. When it is time to "archive" the current log file, then it is closed, renamed and re-created.

The zero-parameter constructor that is used for properties-based configuration (as through the "{@code logging.properties}" file)

Constructor Detail

ArchivingFileHandler

public ArchivingFileHandler()
                     throws ParseException,
                            EvaluationException,
                            IOException

The zero-parameter constructor (which is used by the LogManager). The ArchivingFileHandler, like all java.util.logging handlers, initializes itself with a set of "logging properties" which it retrieves through the LogManager, which normally reads them from the "logging.properties" file:

class-name.pattern

Determines the pathes of the log files; see the pattern parameter of ArchivingFileHandler(String, long, TimeTable, boolean, boolean, Level, Filter, Formatter, String). Defaults to "%h/java%d.log".

class-name.sizeLimit

Determines that log file archiving triggers when the size of the current log file exceeds a given threshold; an integral value, optionally followed by one of "k", "M", "G", "T", "P". Defaults to "none".

class-name.timeTable

An expression that defines the TimeTable for log file archiving with this syntax. Defaults to "never".
Example: "de.unkrig.commons.util.TimeTable.parse("*:0")" for "every full hour".

class-name.append

Whether to append to the current log file (if it initially exists); defaults to false.

Throws:

ParseException

EvaluationException

IOException

ArchivingFileHandler

protected ArchivingFileHandler(int dummy,
                               @Nullable
                               String propertyNamePrefix)
                        throws ParseException,
                               EvaluationException,
                               IOException

Single-arg constructor to be used by proxies. Constructor for extending classes that wish to impose different logging property than that used by ArchivingFileHandler().

Parameters:

dummy - Only there to distinguish this constructor from ArchivingFileHandler(String)

propertyNamePrefix - The property name prefix, or null to use the qualified name of the actual handler class

Throws:

ParseException

The pattern parameter determines the pathes of the log files, relative to the "user directory" (on most systems: the "current working directory"), with the following placeholder replacements:

%%

A literal "%"

%h

The "user home directory" (as determined by the "user.home" system property)

%t

The "default temp file path" (as determined by the "java.io.tmpdir" system property)

%d

The date and time of the archiving, in the DateFormat _yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm-ss. For the "current log file", "%d" is replaced with the empty string.
Iff the pattern does not contain a "%d" placeholder, then "%d" is silently appended to the pattern.

Parameters:

pattern - See the method description

sizeLimit - The size limit for the current file

timeTable - The time table for time-based archiving

append - Whether to append to the current log file (if it initially exists)

autoFlush - See StreamHandler.StreamHandler(OutputStream, boolean, Level, Filter, Formatter, String)

level - See StreamHandler.StreamHandler(OutputStream, boolean, Level, Filter, Formatter, String)

filter - See StreamHandler.StreamHandler(OutputStream, boolean, Level, Filter, Formatter, String)

formatter - See StreamHandler.StreamHandler(OutputStream, boolean, Level, Filter, Formatter, String)

encoding - See StreamHandler.StreamHandler(OutputStream, boolean, Level, Filter, Formatter, String)

Throws:
