Central entry point to the Logging Framework. The static
getLogger method
is the default way for obtaining a
Logger instance. While
the correspondig
getLogger method on a
LogFactory instance
could also be used, using the
LogContext is more convenient and the only way
to align the Loggers of custom application code with the log output of Spicefactory libraries,
since all Spicefactory classes use the
LogContext internally to obtain Logger instances.
Per default LogContext uses an instance of DefaultLogFactory
internally. But using the static factory property you could switch to a
custom LogFactory implementation if necessary. You could even switch at
runtime and all existing Logger instances obtained through LogContext
will be refreshed with instances from the new factory.
factory:LogFactory [read-write]
The LogFactory for the global LogContext.
This is the factory that will be used for all Loggers obtained with
LogContext.getLogger. If you later switch to a different LogFactory
all Loggers obtained with that method will be refreshed to use Logger instances
from the new factory.
Implementation
public static function get factory():LogFactory
public function set factory(value:LogFactory):void
public static function getLogger(name:Object):Logger
Returns the logger for the specified name. If the name parameter is a Class
instance, the fully qualified class name will be used. Otherwise the toString
method will be invoked on the given name instance.
Parameters
| name:Object — the name of the logger
|
Returns
| Logger —
the logger for the specified name
