  • Method Details

    • getName

      String getName()
      Returns the name of this logger.
      Returns:
      the logger name.
    • isLoggable

      boolean isLoggable(System.Logger.Level level)
      Checks if a message of the given level would be logged by this logger.
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      Returns:
      true if the given log message level is currently being logged.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null.
    • log

      default void log(System.Logger.Level level, String msg)
      Logs a message.
      Implementation Requirements:
      The default implementation for this method calls this.log(level, (ResourceBundle)null, msg, (Object[])null);
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      msg - the string message (or a key in the message catalog, if this logger is a localized logger); can be null.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null.
    • log

      default void log(System.Logger.Level level, Supplier<String> msgSupplier)
      Logs a lazily supplied message. If the logger is currently enabled for the given log message level then a message is logged that is the result produced by the given supplier function. Otherwise, the supplier is not operated on.
      Implementation Requirements:
      When logging is enabled for the given level, the default implementation for this method calls this.log(level, (ResourceBundle)null, msgSupplier.get(), (Object[])null);
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      msgSupplier - a supplier function that produces a message.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null, or msgSupplier is null.
    • log

      default void log(System.Logger.Level level, Object obj)
      Logs a message produced from the given object. If the logger is currently enabled for the given log message level then a message is logged that, by default, is the result produced from calling toString on the given object. Otherwise, the object is not operated on.
      Implementation Requirements:
      When logging is enabled for the given level, the default implementation for this method calls this.log(level, (ResourceBundle)null, obj.toString(), (Object[])null);
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      obj - the object to log.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null, or obj is null.
    • log

      default void log(System.Logger.Level level, String msg, Throwable thrown)
      Logs a message associated with a given throwable.
      Implementation Requirements:
      The default implementation for this method calls this.log(level, (ResourceBundle)null, msg, thrown);
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      msg - the string message (or a key in the message catalog, if this logger is a localized logger); can be null.
      thrown - a Throwable associated with the log message; can be null.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null.
    • log

      default void log(System.Logger.Level level, Supplier<String> msgSupplier, Throwable thrown)
      Logs a lazily supplied message associated with a given throwable. If the logger is currently enabled for the given log message level then a message is logged that is the result produced by the given supplier function. Otherwise, the supplier is not operated on.
      Implementation Requirements:
      When logging is enabled for the given level, the default implementation for this method calls this.log(level, (ResourceBundle)null, msgSupplier.get(), thrown);
      Parameters:
      level - one of the log message level identifiers.
      msgSupplier - a supplier function that produces a message.
      thrown - a Throwable associated with log message; can be null.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null, or msgSupplier is null.
    • log

      default void log(System.Logger.Level level, String format, Object... params)
      Logs a message with an optional list of parameters.
      Implementation Requirements:
      The default implementation for this method calls this.log(level, (ResourceBundle)null, format, params);
      Parameters:
      level - one of the log message level identifiers.
      format - the string message format in MessageFormat format, (or a key in the message catalog, if this logger is a localized logger); can be null.
      params - an optional list of parameters to the message (may be none).
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null.
    • log

      void log(System.Logger.Level level, ResourceBundle bundle, String msg, Throwable thrown)
      Logs a localized message associated with a given throwable. If the given resource bundle is non-null, the msg string is localized using the given resource bundle. Otherwise the msg string is not localized.
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      bundle - a resource bundle to localize msg; can be null.
      msg - the string message (or a key in the message catalog, if bundle is not null); can be null.
      thrown - a Throwable associated with the log message; can be null.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null.
    • log

      void log(System.Logger.Level level, ResourceBundle bundle, String format, Object... params)
      Logs a message with resource bundle and an optional list of parameters. If the given resource bundle is non-null, the format string is localized using the given resource bundle. Otherwise the format string is not localized.
      Parameters:
      level - the log message level.
      bundle - a resource bundle to localize format; can be null.
      format - the string message format in MessageFormat format, (or a key in the message catalog if bundle is not null); can be null.
      params - an optional list of parameters to the message (may be none).
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if level is null.
