Re: [flexcoders] Logging in Flex

[John Grden]

Hey Anas, I've put out a test version of Xray's flex2 logger which comes with a panel component if you don't have the xray interface to see your trace out put.  Chris and I modeled it after log4j style of logging.here's an email I sent a while ago about it:
I'm in the very early stages of getting Xray's connector
ported over the AS3 and the first step has been to get the new Logger
up and running.  So far, it's working great and I've included an
OutputPanel.mxml that users can include it in their app if they don't want to
use the xray interface ( plus, i've not implemented log level switching
with xray's interface yet ).

xray/browser/downloads/connector/flex/XrayLogger_as3_alpha.zip?format=raw

some featurues:
1.  log level support (debug, info, warn, error, fatal)
2.  time stamp 
3.  Calling method is reported
4.  objects are recursed
5.  outputs to Xray's interface if you have it running

OutputPanel features (not necessary for running logger):
1.  runtime log level control
2.  Resizeable (drag lower right corner)
3.  Window shade by double clicking header of OutputPanel's header area
4.  Search

Usage:copy com.blitzagency.xray.logger  into your classes/src folderif you want to use the OutputPanel (optional):
copy OutputPanel.mxml to your src folder or where ever your main app is.
Add this line to your app:<ns1:OutputPanel id="outputPanel"/>Add this property to your mx:Application node:

xmlns:ns1="*"Using it in your app:
import com.blitzagency.xray.logger.XrayLog;
.............
public var log:XrayLog;
.............
log = new XrayLog();
log.debug(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.info(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.warn(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.error(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.fatal(message:String [, dump:object]);I've
included the FlashDevelop project in the zip.  I would love
suggestions/comments on implementation and features.  Right now, it
doesn't color code the output based on the log level, but that is
something I'm looking into.
Anyway, if anyone wants to give it a whirl, I'd really appreciate the feedback,On 9/28/06,

            I am wondering if there is some sort of logging mechanism that I could use to log messages/errors from a Flex application. I would like the log to be created on the server.     

It would be great if there is something like Log4J in Flex.     Thank you for your advice.  --  Anas Mughal
