[flexcoders] logging to server?
I've been reading the documents on Flex logging. It seems like there's a pretty good API for logging to the place where trace() calls go, or to a file on the client, or to the server if you're using one of the Flex data services like LCDS. I want to log some data and messages that will go to a file on the server, and I'm not using LCDS, and so far I don't see a way to do it. Is there something built in that I missed? If not I can develop it on my own. Thanks.
RE: [SPAM] [flexcoders] logging to server?
Other than LCDS, there is no built-in server functionality, in order to preserve platform independence. However, basic server communications can be extremely simple. The HTTPService protocol is the simplest to use, unless you are comfortable with java/amf/remoteObject. WebService uses SOAP, which adds a layer of complexity you do not need for something like logging. Devise a standard xml format for your logging, build the xml in flex and send() it to the server using HTTPService. On the server grab the xml using querystring or form variables, depending on which method you use with your HTTPservice call (Post tends to be the most flexible), and use the server functionality to write it to a log file. I use VB.net for most of my server side stuff, what would be your choice?

Re: [SPAM] [flexcoders] logging to server?
We have server side Java, and an existing XML/Web Services framework for communicating between Flex and Java. I'll add a logging interface. It shouldn't be hard, like you say. I just wanted to double check that I hadn't missed the chance to use something that's already built in.

Hi All, Can anybody help me in creating logs in flex. For example when i click a button it should create a log in a file in specified destination
RE: [SPAM] [flexcoders] Logging in flex (urgent help)
For logging in production, look into to the mx.logging classes in the docs. For debugging I just use trace().

[flexcoders] Logging API
Am I missing something or as much as I can write a class that implements ILogger there is no way to actually use it? I can't see anyway to specify the ILogger to be used and Log just uses LogLogger by default, as per usual all the variables are private in Log so can't be accessed, the class is static so cant be overriden, so the only option seems to be to clone the Log class and then just not use Log anywhere in our apps?? Also once logging a category there is no way to stop short of calling flush and dumping everything?
Re: [flexcoders] Logging API
You can add your own logger with Log.addTarget(yourLoggerInstance) or simply define it in MXML like here: http://soenkerohde.com/2008/08/sos-logging-target/ On 15.09.2009, at 10:44, reflexactions wrote: Am I missing something or as much as I can write a class that implements ILogger there is no way to actually use it?

[flexcoders] Logging best practice
I was delighted to learn recently about this: http://www.pixelate.de/blog/debug-and-release-builds-with-as3-conditional-compilation So I thought I'd pass that along. So now I can wrap some asserts and alerts in CONFIG::debug. My understanding is that it's OK to include trace() statements in a release build. Please set me straight if that's not the case.
[flexcoders] Logging
Hi all,
Is there any way in which I get the caller function name. As in :
class Aclass{
instanceB:Bclass;
function a(){
instanceB.b(this)
}
}
class Bclass{
function b(Obj){
// How to trace function name and class name
}
}
I have traced out class name by getFullyQualifiedClassName(Obj) but how to
trace function name ???
Please somebody guide me .. its very important for me.
Regards
Re: [flexcoders] Logging
You can try throwing Error and catching/parsing stacktrace - depending on
compilation settings (debug) you should get method, class and line info

Re: [flexcoders] Logging in Flex
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 ). http://mirror1.cvsdude.com/trac/osflash/ xray/browser/downloads/connector/flex/XrayLogger_as3_alpha.zip?format=raw screenshot:http://www.rockonflash.com/ xray/images/XrayLogger_Flex2_withInterface_0.png some featurues: 1. log level support (debug, info, warn, error, fatal) 2. time stamp 3.

[flexcoders] Logging in Flex2 - Please help
Hi,
We have a created a customTarget which will log the messages to
a Debug Console. In the console, we need to display the message and
the object that is passed to the logger.
For eg:
1)res:Object ; // asuume it is initialized some where else
myLogger.info(This is a {1} message, res);
The output will look like
This is a res.toString() message.
2) In our scenario we don't want the message to be replaced with the
content of the 2nd argument. We need to access the object as it is.
The current Logging mechanism we dont see a way to achieve
this. Even If we can create our own logger and logevent, how does
the Log.getLogger be changed to return the customLogger object.
Any suggestions? Please help me, this is urgent.
Thanks,
Santa

RE: [flexcoders] Logging in Flex2 - Please help
It does not look like you can do this with
the current logging code. While you can add your own implementation of the ILoggingTarget
interface which receives the fully formatted string (after the variable
substitution), you cant add your own ILogger implementation for a given
category. It is the ILogger class which does the argument substitution and
right now that is hard-coded to use the LogLogger implementation class. I
think we ship the source for this stuff in the framework/source directory so
you can see for yourself.

[flexcoders] Logging API issue
Hi all,I'm playing with f2b3 new logging api and trying to use it in a similar way I'd use java.util.logHowever if the category of the logger contains the : character an exception is thrown. Reviewing the code, I've seen in the Log class a function called hasIllegalCharacters() which explicitly prevents us from using a : character in the category name.
I think a really common log would be as follows:[DEBUG] 5/19 23:05 - com.code4net.log.TestLog TestLog object createdBut due to the syntax of the string returned by getQualifiedClassName() the category would be
com.code4net.log:TestLog. Here's the code I'm playing with:codepackage com.code4net.rpc { import mx.logging.Log; import mx.logging.ILogger; import flash.utils.getQualifiedClassName
; import mx.logging.LogEventLevel; public class TestLog { private var log:ILogger = Log.getLogger(getQualifiedClassName(this).replace(::,.));public function TestLog() {
log.log(LogEventLevel.DEBUG,TestLog object created); } }}/codeAs shown in the code : can be replaced with . but IMHO in large applications this could become an important performance issue.
Are category names restricted for some especial reason? Is there any other way to go?BestXavi Beumala
