```
public class CollectorFormatter
extends java.util.logging.Formatter
```
A LogRecord formatter that takes a sequence of LogRecords and combines them into a single summary result. Formating of the head, LogRecord, and tail are delegated to the wrapped formatter.
By default each CollectorFormatter is initialized using the following LogManager configuration properties where <formatter-name> refers to the fully qualified class name or the fully qualified derived class name of the formatter. If properties are not defined, or contain invalid values, then the specified default values are used.
- <formatter-name>.comparator name of a Comparator class used to choose the collected LogRecord. If a comparator is specified then the max LogRecord is chosen. If comparator is set to the string literal null, then the last record is chosen. (defaults to SeverityComparator)
- <formatter-name>.comparator.reverse a boolean true to collect the min LogRecord or false to collect the max LogRecord. (defaults to false)
- <formatter-name>.format the MessageFormat string used to format the collected summary statistics. The arguments are explained in detail in the getTail documentation. (defaults to {0}{1}{2}{4,choice,-1#|0#|0<... {4,number,integer} more}\n)
- <formatter-name>.formatter name of a Formatter class used to format the collected LogRecord. (defaults to CompactFormatter)

```
public CollectorFormatter()
```
    Creates the formatter using the LogManager defaults.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.SecurityException - if a security manager exists and the caller does not have LoggingPermission("control").
    
    java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException - if there are problems loading from the LogManager.
  - CollectorFormatter
```
public CollectorFormatter(java.lang.String format)
```
    Creates the formatter using the given format.
    
    Parameters:
    
    format - the message format or null to use the LogManager default.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.SecurityException - if a security manager exists and the caller does not have LoggingPermission("control").
    
    java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException - if there are problems loading from the LogManager.

                          java.util.Comparator<? super java.util.logging.LogRecord> c)
```
    Creates the formatter using the given values.
    
    Parameters:
    
    format - the format string or null to use the LogManager default.
    
    f - the formatter used on the collected log record or null to specify no formatter.
    
    c - the comparator used to determine which log record to format or null to specify no comparator.
    
    Throws:

  - format
```
public java.lang.String format(java.util.logging.LogRecord record)
```
    Accumulates log records which will be used to produce the final output. The output is generated using the getTail(java.util.logging.Handler) method which also resets this formatter back to its original state.
    
    Specified by:
    
    format in class java.util.logging.Formatter
    
    Parameters:
    
    record - the record to store.
    
    Returns:
    
    an empty string.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the given record is null.
  - getTail
```
public java.lang.String getTail(java.util.logging.Handler h)
```
    Formats the collected LogRecord and summary statistics. The collected results are reset after calling this method. The java.text argument indexes are assigned to the following properties:
    
    head the head string returned from the target formatter and finished by this formatter.
    formatted the current log record formatted by the target formatter and finished by this formatter. If the formatter is null then record is formatted by this formatter.
    tail the tail string returned from the target formatter and finished by this formatter.
    count the total number of log records consumed by this formatter.
    remaining the count minus one.
    thrown the total number of log records consumed by this formatter with an assigned throwable.
    normal messages the count minus the thrown.
    minMillis the eldest log record event time consumed by this formatter. If the count is zero then this is set to the previous max or approximate start time if there was no previous max. By default this parameter is defined as a number. The format type and format style rules from the MessageFormat should be used to convert this from milliseconds to a date or time.
    maxMillis the most recent log record event time consumed by this formatter. If the count is zero then this is set to the current time. By default this parameter is defined as a number. The format type and format style rules from the MessageFormat should be used to convert this from milliseconds to a date or time.
    elapsed the elapsed time in milliseconds between the maxMillis and minMillis.
    startTime the approximate start time in milliseconds. By default this parameter is defined as a number. The format type and format style rules from the MessageFormat should be used to convert this from milliseconds to a date or time.
    currentTime the current time in milliseconds. By default this parameter is defined as a number. The format type and format style rules from the MessageFormat should be used to convert this from milliseconds to a date or time.
    uptime the elapsed time in milliseconds between the currentTime and startTime.
    generation the number times this method produced output with at least one consumed log record. This can be used to track the number of complete reports this formatter has produced.
    
    Some example formats:
    
    com.sun.mail.util.logging.CollectorFormatter.format={0}{1}{2}{4,choice,-1#|0#|0<... {4,number,integer} more}\n
    This prints the head ({0}), format ({1}), and tail ({2}) from the target formatter followed by the number of remaining ({4}) log records consumed by this formatter if there are any remaining records.

    com.sun.mail.util.logging.CollectorFormatter.format=These {3} messages occurred between\n{7,date,EEE, MMM dd HH:mm:ss:S ZZZ yyyy} and {8,time,EEE, MMM dd HH:mm:ss:S ZZZ yyyy}\n
    This prints the count ({3}) followed by the date and time of the eldest log record ({7}) and the date and time of the most recent log record ({8}).
    These 292 messages occurred between Tue, Jul 21 14:11:42:449 -0500 2009 and Fri, Nov 20 07:29:24:0 -0600 2009

    This prints the count ({3}) and then chooses the format based on the elapsed time ({9}). If the elapsed time is less than one day then the eldest log record ({7}) date and time is formatted followed by just the time of the most recent log record ({8}. Otherwise, the just the date of the eldest log record ({7}) and just the date of most recent log record ({8} is formatted.
    These 73 messages occurred between Jul 21, 2009 2:11:42 PM and 2:13:32 PM These 116 messages occurred between Jul 21, 2009 and Aug 20, 2009
    
    com.sun.mail.util.logging.CollectorFormatter.format={13} alert reports since {10,date}.\n
    This prints the generation ({13}) followed by the start time ({10}) formatted as a date.
