RE: [Cxtable-devel] RE: Logging

[Williams, D. <DAV...@ca...>]

As far as the "thing don't work" in the beginning types of things...(while initially setting up)...it would be a matter of System.err.println("..") messages being put in place....  only stdout is redirected to the file.

Once the GUI is up...there is "report" textarea for informing the user of what went wrong...

And not that this is particularly the purpose of this thread of emails, but... Could you remind me of a few things about Swing..?  For example, does JFrame extend Frame?  .. or does it extend JPanel?..  Can Swing make it look prettier on Linux..?  (if the answer is yes to that...then... I'm swinging..)

I did see the logs, and there are some interesting new logging capabilities
in the 1.4 jdk we can look at using as well (a lot like jlog).  The main
thing is that when the user is doing something, we don't want them to need
to go to some file to determine if it worked or not.  We don't need to tell
them every time something works, because it is obvious that is does, but
when something does not work, we should know why, and try to tell them the
reason in as simple and clear a manner as possible.
