Direct Known Subclasses:

UniqueDatedFileLoggingMechanism

public class UniqueFileLoggingMechanism

extends AbstractFileLoggingMechanism

This logging mechanism is the simplest implementation of a file logging mechanism. It is designed to have one log file per log, with the name of the log as part of the file name. It doesn't do anything fancy like rolling over to a new file when a date changes, it appends all messages to the same file name if already present.

isSharedLog

protected boolean isSharedLog()

Description copied from class: AbstractLoggingMechanism

Mechanisms can be shared or unique. Shared mechanisms require the log name to be in every log entry (so you can distinguish between the log entries). Unique mechanisms name themselves uniquely (for example, have the log name in their file name) so they do not have to put the name of the log in their log entry. The default is shared (true).
