| "description": "Provides pseudo-hierarchical logging capabilities with multiple format and output options. The log system consists of two major components, the logger and a target. You can use the logger to send information to a target. The target is responsible for formatting and general output of the log data. <p> 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. </p> <p>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: <code>MiniDebugTarget</code> and <code>TraceTarget</code>. 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. </p> <pre>\\n ...\\n import mx.logging.targets.*;\\n import mx.logging.*;\\n \\n private function initLogging():void {\\n // Create a target.\\n var logTarget:TraceTarget = new TraceTarget();\\n \\n // Log only messages for the classes in the mx.rpc.* and\\n // mx.messaging packages.\\n logTarget.filters=["mx.rpc.*","mx.messaging.*"];\\n \\n // Log all log levels.\\n logTarget.level = LogEventLevel.ALL;\\n \\n // Add date, time, category, and log level to the output.\\n logTarget.includeDate = true;\\n logTarget.includeTime = true;\\n logTarget.includeCategory = true;\\n logTarget.includeLevel = true;\\n \\n // Begin logging.\\n Log.addTarget(logTarget);\\n }\\n ...\\n </pre>", | |
