Class LogMessage

java.io.Writer

java.io.PrintWriter

omero.log.LogMessage

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable, java.io.Flushable, java.lang.Appendable, java.lang.AutoCloseable

public class LogMessage
extends java.io.PrintWriter

Writes a multi-line log message into a single string. This class should be used to write a log message on multiple lines. In fact, writing text that spans multiple lines is a platform-dependent operation. This class conveniently encapsulates this process while providing a platform-independent interface. This class extends PrintWriter to inherit all sort of useful print methods and adds another print method to write a stack trace into the log message.

Since:

OME2.2
