Loggers are singleton instances created for a particular category of information. Typically, the category is the package name of the component that desires to log information. The category provides users the ability to specify what log information they are interested in. Multiple categories can be selected and combined with regular expressions. This allows for both broad and narrow logging information to be acquired. For example, you might be interested in all logging information under the "mx.messaging" and "mx.rpc" packages and want the output from these packages to be formatted as XML. To get the all of the logging information under the "mx.messaging" category including sub-packages and components a wildcard expression is required, such as "mx.messaging.*". See the code example below for more details.
Targets provide the output mechanism of the data being logged.
This mechanism typically includes formatting, transmission, or storage, but
can be anything possible under the VM.
There are two targets provided: MiniDebugTarget
and
TraceTarget
.
Each of these writers take the current log information and "sends" it
somewhere for display and/or storage.
Targets also provide the specification of what log data to output.

flush | () | method |
public static function flush():void
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
This method removes all of the current loggers from the cache.
Subsquent calls to the getLogger()
method return new instances
of loggers rather than any previous instances with the same category.
This method is intended for use in debugging only.
getLogger | () | method |
public static function getLogger(category:String):ILogger
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Returns the logger associated with the specified category.
If the category given doesn't exist a new instance of a logger will be
returned and associated with that category.
Categories must be at least one character in length and may not contain
any blanks or any of the following characters:
[]~$^&\/(){}<>+=`!#%?,:;'"@
This method will throw an InvalidCategoryError
if the
category specified is malformed.
Parameters
category:String — The category of the logger that should be returned.
|
ILogger — An instance of a logger object for the specified name.
If the name doesn't exist, a new instance with the specified
name is returned.
