Class XmlLogger

org.apache.tools.ant.XmlLogger

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventListener, BuildListener, BuildLogger

public class XmlLogger
extends Object
implements BuildLogger

Generates a file in the current directory with an XML description of what happened during a build. The default filename is "log.xml", but this can be overridden with the property XmlLogger.file. This implementation assumes in its sanity checking that only one thread runs a particular target/task at a time. This is enforced by the way that parallel builds and antcalls are done - and indeed all but the simplest of tasks could run into problems if executed in parallel.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	buildFinished(BuildEvent event)	Fired when the build finishes, this adds the time taken and any error stacktrace to the build element and writes the document to disk.
void	buildStarted(BuildEvent event)	Fired when the build starts, this builds the top-level element for the document and remembers the time of the start of the build.
int	getMessageOutputLevel()
void	messageLogged(BuildEvent event)	Fired when a message is logged, this adds a message element to the most appropriate parent element (task, target or build) and records the priority and text of the message.
void	setEmacsMode(boolean emacsMode)	Ignore emacs mode, as it has no meaning in XML format
void	setErrorPrintStream(PrintStream err)	Ignore error print stream.
void	setMessageOutputLevel(int level)	Set the logging level when using this as a Logger
void	setOutputPrintStream(PrintStream output)	Set the output stream to which logging output is sent when operating as a logger.
void	targetFinished(BuildEvent event)	Fired when a target finishes building, this adds the time taken and any error stacktrace to the appropriate target element in the log.
void	targetStarted(BuildEvent event)	Fired when a target starts building, this pushes a timed element for the target onto the stack of elements for the current thread, remembering the current time and the name of the target.
void	taskFinished(BuildEvent event)	Fired when a task finishes building, this adds the time taken and any error stacktrace to the appropriate task element in the log.
void	taskStarted(BuildEvent event)	Fired when a task starts building, this pushes a timed element for the task onto the stack of elements for the current thread, remembering the current time and the name of the task.

Method Details

buildStarted

public void buildStarted(BuildEvent event)

Fired when the build starts, this builds the top-level element for the document and remembers the time of the start of the build.

Specified by:

buildStarted in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - Ignored.

buildFinished

public void buildFinished(BuildEvent event)

Fired when the build finishes, this adds the time taken and any error stacktrace to the build element and writes the document to disk.

Specified by:

buildFinished in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - An event with any relevant extra information. Will not be null.

See Also:

• BuildEvent.getException()

targetStarted

public void targetStarted(BuildEvent event)

Fired when a target starts building, this pushes a timed element for the target onto the stack of elements for the current thread, remembering the current time and the name of the target.

Specified by:

targetStarted in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - An event with any relevant extra information. Will not be null.

See Also:

• BuildEvent.getTarget()

targetFinished

public void targetFinished(BuildEvent event)

Fired when a target finishes building, this adds the time taken and any error stacktrace to the appropriate target element in the log.

Specified by:

targetFinished in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - An event with any relevant extra information. Will not be null.

See Also:

• BuildEvent.getException()

taskStarted

public void taskStarted(BuildEvent event)

Fired when a task starts building, this pushes a timed element for the task onto the stack of elements for the current thread, remembering the current time and the name of the task.

Specified by:

taskStarted in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - An event with any relevant extra information. Will not be null.

See Also:

• BuildEvent.getTask()

taskFinished

public void taskFinished(BuildEvent event)

Fired when a task finishes building, this adds the time taken and any error stacktrace to the appropriate task element in the log.

Specified by:

taskFinished in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - An event with any relevant extra information. Will not be null.

See Also:

• BuildEvent.getException()

messageLogged

public void messageLogged(BuildEvent event)

Fired when a message is logged, this adds a message element to the most appropriate parent element (task, target or build) and records the priority and text of the message.

Specified by:

messageLogged in interface BuildListener

Parameters:

event - An event with any relevant extra information. Will not be null.

See Also:

• BuildEvent.getMessage()
• BuildEvent.getException()
• BuildEvent.getPriority()

setMessageOutputLevel

public void setMessageOutputLevel(int level)

Set the logging level when using this as a Logger

Specified by:

setMessageOutputLevel in interface BuildLogger

Parameters:

level - the logging level - see Project class for level definitions

getMessageOutputLevel

public int getMessageOutputLevel()

Specified by:

getMessageOutputLevel in interface BuildLogger

Returns:

Returns the currently set message output level. The default implementation of this method returns MSG_INFO.

setOutputPrintStream

public void setOutputPrintStream(PrintStream output)

Set the output stream to which logging output is sent when operating as a logger.

Specified by:

setOutputPrintStream in interface BuildLogger

Parameters:

output - the output PrintStream.

setEmacsMode

public void setEmacsMode(boolean emacsMode)

Ignore emacs mode, as it has no meaning in XML format

Specified by:

setEmacsMode in interface BuildLogger

Parameters:

emacsMode - true if logger should produce emacs compatible output

setErrorPrintStream

public void setErrorPrintStream(PrintStream err)

Ignore error print stream. All output will be written to either the XML log file or the PrintStream provided to setOutputPrintStream

Specified by:

setErrorPrintStream in interface BuildLogger

Parameters:

err - the stream we are going to ignore.
