Detailed Description

This is the central class in the log4cplus package.

One of the distintive features of log4cplus are hierarchical loggers and their evaluation.

See the user manual for an introduction on this class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Logger()

DCMTK_LOG4CPLUS_PRIVATE dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::Logger ( spi::LoggerImpl ptr)
private

This constructor created a new Logger instance with a pointer to a Logger implementation.

You should not create loggers directly.

Parameters
ptrA pointer to the Logger implementation. This value cannot be NULL.

Member Function Documentation

◆ assertion()

void dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::assertion ( bool  assertionVal,
const log4cplus::tstring msg 
) const

If assertionVal parameter is false, then logs msg with FATAL_LOG_LEVEL log level.

Parameters
assertionValTruth value of assertion condition.
msgThe message to print if assertion is false.

◆ callAppenders()

void dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::callAppenders ( const spi::InternalLoggingEvent event) const

Call the appenders in the hierrachy starting at this.

If no appenders could be found, emit a warning.

This method calls all the appenders inherited from the hierarchy circumventing any evaluation of whether to log or not to log the particular log request.

Parameters
eventthe event to log.

◆ closeNestedAppenders()

void dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::closeNestedAppenders ( ) const

Close all attached appenders implementing the AppenderAttachable interface.


◆ exists()

static bool dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::exists ( const log4cplus::tstring name)
static

Returns true if the named logger exists (in the default hierarchy).

Parameters
nameThe name of the logger to search for.

◆ forcedLog()

void dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::forcedLog ( LogLevel  ll,
const log4cplus::tstring message,
const char *  file = NULL,
int  line = -1 
) const

This method creates a new logging event and logs the event without further checks.


◆ getAdditivity()

bool dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getAdditivity ( ) const

Get the additivity flag for this Logger instance.


◆ getChainedLogLevel()

LogLevel dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getChainedLogLevel ( ) const

Starting from this logger, search the logger hierarchy for a "set" LogLevel and return it.

Otherwise, return the LogLevel of the root logger.

The Logger class is designed so that this method executes as quickly as possible.

◆ getInstance() [1/2]

static Logger dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getInstance ( const log4cplus::tstring name)
static

Retrieve a logger with name name.

If the named logger already exists, then the existing instance will be returned. Otherwise, a new instance is created.

By default, loggers do not have a set LogLevel but inherit it from the hierarchy. This is one of the central features of log4cplus.

Parameters
nameThe name of the logger to retrieve.

◆ getInstance() [2/2]

static Logger dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getInstance ( const log4cplus::tstring name,
spi::LoggerFactory factory 
)
static

Like getInstance() except that the type of logger instantiated depends on the type returned by the {} method of the factory parameter.

This method is intended to be used by sub-classes.

Parameters
nameThe name of the logger to retrieve.
factoryA spi::LoggerFactory implementation that will actually create a new Instance.

◆ getLogLevel()

LogLevel dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getLogLevel ( ) const

Returns the assigned LogLevel, if any, for this Logger.


Returns
LogLevel - the assigned LogLevel, can be NOT_SET_LOG_LEVEL.

◆ getName()

log4cplus::tstring const& dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getName ( ) const

Return the logger name.


◆ getRoot()

static Logger dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::getRoot ( )
static

Return the root of the default logger hierrachy.

The root logger is always instantiated and available. It's name is "root".

Nevertheless, calling Logger.getInstance("root") does not retrieve the root logger but a logger just under root named "root".

◆ isEnabledFor()

bool dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::isEnabledFor ( LogLevel  ll) const

Check whether this logger is enabled for a given LogLevel passed as parameter.

Returns
boolean True if this logger is enabled for ll.

◆ shutdown()

static void dcmtk::log4cplus::Logger::shutdown ( )
static

Calling this method will safely close and remove all appenders in all the loggers including root contained in the default hierachy.

Some appenders such as SocketAppender need to be closed before the application exits. Otherwise, pending logging events might be lost.

The shutdown method is careful to close nested appenders before closing regular appenders. This is allows configurations where a regular appender is attached to a logger and again to a nested appender.
