StreamHandler

public class StreamHandler
extends Handler

java.lang.Object
↳	java.util.logging.Handler
	↳	java.util.logging.StreamHandler

Known Direct Subclasses

ConsoleHandler, FileHandler, SocketHandler

Stream based logging Handler.

This is primarily intended as a base class or support class to be used in implementing other logging Handlers.

LogRecords are published to a given java.io.OutputStream.

Configuration: By default each StreamHandler is initialized using the following LogManager configuration properties. If properties are not defined (or have invalid values) then the specified default values are used.

java.util.logging.StreamHandler.level specifies the default level for the Handler (defaults to Level.INFO).
java.util.logging.StreamHandler.filter specifies the name of a Filter class to use (defaults to no Filter).
java.util.logging.StreamHandler.formatter specifies the name of a Formatter class to use (defaults to java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter).
java.util.logging.StreamHandler.encoding the name of the character set encoding to use (defaults to the default platform encoding).

Summary

From class


  
    java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long millis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long millis)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

Public constructors

StreamHandler

Added in API level 1

StreamHandler ()

Create a StreamHandler, with no current output stream.

StreamHandler

Added in API level 1

StreamHandler (OutputStream out, 
                Formatter formatter)

Create a StreamHandler with a given Formatter and output stream.

Parameters
`out`	`OutputStream`: the target output stream
`formatter`	`Formatter`: Formatter to be used to format output

Public methods

close

Added in API level 1

void close ()

Close the current output stream.

The Formatter's "tail" string is written to the stream before it is closed. In addition, if the Formatter's "head" string has not yet been written to the stream, it will be written before the "tail" string.

Throws
`SecurityException`	if a security manager exists and if the caller does not have LoggingPermission("control").

flush

Added in API level 1

void flush ()

Flush any buffered messages.

isLoggable

Added in API level 1

boolean isLoggable (LogRecord record)

Check if this Handler would actually log a given LogRecord.

This method checks if the LogRecord has an appropriate level and whether it satisfies any Filter. It will also return false if no output stream has been assigned yet or the LogRecord is null.

Parameters
`record`	`LogRecord`: a `LogRecord`

Returns
`boolean`	true if the `LogRecord` would be logged.

publish

Added in API level 1

void publish (LogRecord record)

Format and publish a LogRecord.

The StreamHandler first checks if there is an OutputStream and if the given LogRecord has at least the required log level. If not it silently returns. If so, it calls any associated Filter to check if the record should be published. If so, it calls its Formatter to format the record and then writes the result to the current output stream.

If this is the first LogRecord to be written to a given OutputStream, the Formatter's "head" string is written to the stream before the LogRecord is written.

Parameters
`record`	`LogRecord`: description of the log event. A null record is silently ignored and is not published

setEncoding

Added in API level 1

void setEncoding (String encoding)

Set (or change) the character encoding used by this Handler.

The encoding should be set before any LogRecords are written to the Handler.

Parameters
`encoding`	`String`: The name of a supported character encoding. May be null, to indicate the default platform encoding.

Throws
`SecurityException`	if a security manager exists and if the caller does not have `LoggingPermission("control")`.
`UnsupportedEncodingException`	if the named encoding is not supported.

Protected methods

setOutputStream

Added in API level 1

void setOutputStream (OutputStream out)

Change the output stream.

If there is a current output stream then the Formatter's tail string is written and the stream is flushed and closed. Then the output stream is replaced with the new output stream.

Parameters
`out`	`OutputStream`: New output stream. May not be null.

Throws
`SecurityException`	if a security manager exists and if the caller does not have `LoggingPermission("control")`.
