Method Detail

addLogListener

void addLogListener(LogListener listener,
                    LogFilter filter)

Subscribes to LogEntry objects.

This method registers a LogListener object with the Log Reader Service with a LogFilter to allow pre-filtering of interesting log entries. The LogListener.logged(LogEntry) method will be called for each LogEntry object placed into the log that matches the filter.

Parameters:

listener - A LogListener object to register; the LogListener object is used to receive LogEntry objects.

filter - A LogFilter object to register; the LogFilter object is used to filter LogEntry objects before sending them to the associated LogListener.
