Detailed Description

Send an e-mail when a specific logging event occurs, typically on errors or fatal errors.

The number of logging events delivered in this e-mail depend on the value of BufferSize option. The SMTPAppender keeps only the last BufferSize logging events in its cyclic buffer. This keeps memory requirements at a reasonable level while still delivering useful application context.

log4cxx::net::SMTPAppender::SMTPAppender ( )

◆ SMTPAppender() [2/3]

log4cxx::net::SMTPAppender::SMTPAppender ( log4cxx::helpers::Pool p)

The default constructor will instantiate the appender with a spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator that will trigger on events with level ERROR or higher.

◆ SMTPAppender() [3/3]

log4cxx::net::SMTPAppender::SMTPAppender ( spi::TriggeringEventEvaluatorPtr  evaluator)

Use evaluator passed as parameter as the spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator for this net::SMTPAppender.

◆ ~SMTPAppender()

log4cxx::net::SMTPAppender::~SMTPAppender ( )
