【轉】Android使用Log4j例子

Step 1

Download Log4J library from http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/download.html

Step 2

Configuring Log4J library the normal way - using XML configuration file - can't be used in Android based Java application as the configuration classes of Log4J use beans from the package "java.beans" (e.g. PropertyDescriptor). Not all classes of this package are supported in Android, so using Log4J directly in Android Java application will case exceptions like the following one to be thrown:

There is a project called android-logging-log4j, which provides a convenient way to configure the log4j system properly.

Download "Android Logging Log4J" library fromhttp://code.google.com/p/android-logging-log4j/downloads/list

Step 3

Add Both libraries "log4j" and "android-logging-log4j" to your application libraries

Step 4

In order to log to a file on the external storage, the following permission needs to be placed in AndroidManifest.xml

1. <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

Step 5

In your application Main class:

1. package  com.android.myapp ;
2.  
3. import  java.io.File ;
4.  
5. import  org.apache.log4j.Level ;
6. import  org.apache.log4j.Logger ;
7.  
8. import  android.app.Application ;
9. import  android.os.Environment ;
10. import  de.mindpipe.android.logging.log4j.LogConfigurator ;
11.  
12. public  class MyApplication  extends Application  {
13.         @Override
14.          public  void onCreate ( )  {
15.                  super. onCreate ( ) ;
16.                 LogConfigurator logConfigurator  =  new LogConfigurator ( ) ;
17.                 logConfigurator. setFileName ( Environment. getExternalStorageDirectory ( )
18.                                  +  File. separator  +  "MyApp"  +  File. separator  +  "logs"
19.                                  +  File. separator  +  "log4j.txt" ) ;
20.                 logConfigurator. setRootLevel (Level. DEBUG ) ;
21.                 logConfigurator. setLevel ( "org.apache", Level. ERROR ) ;
22.                 logConfigurator. setFilePattern ( "%d %-5p [%c{2}]-[%L] %m%n" ) ;
23.                 logConfigurator. setMaxFileSize ( 1024  *  1024  *  5 ) ;
24.                 logConfigurator. setImmediateFlush ( true ) ;
25.                 logConfigurator. configure ( ) ;
26.                 Logger log  = Logger. getLogger (MyApplication. class ) ;
27.                 log. info ( "My Application Created" ) ;
28.          }
29. }

Now you will have log4j configured to log to Path: (Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + File.separator + "MyApp" + File.separator + "logs" + File.separator + "log4j.txt") with DEBUG level and ERROR lever for "org.apache" package with file pattern "%d %-5p [%c{2}]-[%L] %m%n" and other configuration parameters.

6. 程序中使用的實例。

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class ExampleLog4J{
    privatefinalLogger log =Logger.getLogger(ExampleLog4J.class);

    publicvoid myMethod(){
        log.info("This message should be seen in log file and logcat");
    }
}
