Method Details

log

@Deprecated public static LogStream log(String name)

Deprecated.

no replacement

Return the LogStream identified by the given name. If a log corresponding to "name" does not exist, a log using the default stream is created.

Parameters:: name - name identifying the desired LogStream
Returns:: log associated with given name
Since:: 1.1

getDefaultStream

@Deprecated public static PrintStream getDefaultStream()

Deprecated.

no replacement

Return the current default stream for new logs.

Returns:

default log stream

Since:

1.1

See Also:

setDefaultStream

@Deprecated public static void setDefaultStream(PrintStream newDefault)

Deprecated.

no replacement

Set the default stream for new logs.

Parameters:

newDefault - new default log stream

See Also:

getOutputStream

@Deprecated public OutputStream getOutputStream()

Deprecated.

no replacement

Return the current stream to which output from this log is sent.

Returns:

output stream for this log

Since:

1.1

See Also:

setOutputStream

@Deprecated public void setOutputStream(OutputStream out)

Deprecated.

no replacement

Set the stream to which output from this log is sent.

Parameters:

out - new output stream for this log

Since:

1.1

See Also:

write

@Deprecated public void write(int b)

Deprecated.

no replacement

Write a byte of data to the stream. If it is not a newline, then the byte is appended to the internal buffer. If it is a newline, then the currently buffered line is sent to the log's output stream, prefixed with the appropriate logging information.

Overrides:

write in class PrintStream

Parameters:

b - The byte to be written

Since:

1.1

See Also:

write

@Deprecated public void write(byte[] b, int off, int len)

Deprecated.

no replacement

Write a subarray of bytes. Pass each through write byte method.

Overrides:

write in class PrintStream

Parameters:

b - A byte array

off - Offset from which to start taking bytes

len - Number of bytes to write

Since:

1.1

See Also:

toString

@Deprecated public String toString()

Deprecated.

no replacement

Return log name as string representation.

Overrides:: toString in class Object
Returns:: log name
Since:: 1.1

parseLevel

@Deprecated public static int parseLevel(String s)

Deprecated.

no replacement

Convert a string name of a logging level to its internal integer representation.

Parameters:: s - name of logging level (e.g., 'SILENT', 'BRIEF', 'VERBOSE')
Returns:: corresponding integer log level
Since:: 1.1
