Detailed Description

SimpleLayout consists of the level of the log statement, followed by " - " and then the log message itself.

For example,

        DEBUG - Hello world

PatternLayout offers a much more powerful alternative.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void activateOptions ( log4cxx::helpers::Pool &  p )

inlinevirtual

Activate the options that were previously set with calls to option setters.

This allows to defer activiation of the options until all options have been set. This is required for components which have related options that remain ambigous until all are set.

For example, the FileAppender has the File and Append options both of which are ambigous until the other is also set.

Implements OptionHandler.

virtual void format ( LogString &  output, const spi::LoggingEventPtr &  event, log4cxx::helpers::Pool &  pool  ) const

virtual

Returns the log statement in a format consisting of the level, followed by " - " and then the message.

For example,

 INFO - "A message"

Returns

A byte array in SimpleLayout format.

Implements Layout.

bool ignoresThrowable ( ) const

inlinevirtual

The SimpleLayout does not handle the throwable contained within LoggingEvents.

Thus, it returns true.

Implements Layout.

virtual void setOption ( const LogString &  option, const LogString &  value  )

inlinevirtual

Set option to value.

The handling of each option depends on the OptionHandler instance. Some options may become active immediately whereas other may be activated only when activateOptions is called.

Implements OptionHandler.
