Configuration File

G-logger use a configuration file to auto-configure itself. Put in your classpath one text file named glog.properties and see the options below:

glog.logger.type = UTIL, LOG4J, SLF4J
glog.logger.file = <FILE_PATH_INSIDE_CLASSPATH>

Examples :

java.util.logging

glog.logger.type = UTIL
glog.logger.file = my-java-util-file.properties

org.apache.log4j

glog.logger.type = LOG4J
glog.logger.file = resources/my-log4j-file.properties

or

glog.logger.file = custom-log4j.xml

org.slf4j

glog.logger.type = SLF4J
glog.logger.file = my-config-with-slf4j.properties

GLogFactory

Log factory singleton that create dynamically your preferred logger.

GLogFactory.getInstance().getLogger( LOGGER.class, CLASS_TO_LOG.class );
GLogFactory.getInstance().getLogger( LOGGER.class, CLASS_TO_LOG.class, YourFormatter );

example

GLogFactory.getInstance().getLogger(SimpleLogger.class, MyCustomClass.class );

or

GLogFactory.getInstance().getLogger(SimpleLogger.class, MyCustomClass.class, new MyCustomerFormatter() );
