I have a common DAO class with the logger initialized by its name.
I have something like this:
public class QueueDaoImpl implements QueueDao {
private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(QueueDaoImpl.class);
#Autowired
private StoredProcedureFactory storedProcedureFactory;
#Override
#Transactional(readOnly = true, value = "transactionManager")
public EnqueueRespVO enqueueMessage(EnqueueMsgReqVO req) throws DAOException {
EnqueueRespVO toResponse;
try {
EnqueueMessageStoredProcedure sp = storedProcedureFactory.getEnqueueMessageSP();
Map<String, String> inParams = BeanUtils.describe(req);
Map<String, Object> out = sp.execute(inParams);
toResponse = new EnqueueRespVO();
toResponse.setErrCode((Integer) out.get(EnqueueMessageStoredProcedure.ERROR_CODE_OUT_PARAM));
toResponse.setErrDescription((String) out.get(EnqueueMessageStoredProcedure.ERROR_DESC_OUT_PARAM));
} catch (DataAccessException e) {
final String msg = String.format("A database error has occurred. Error = ", e);
//log.error("[login] - Ended with an error. ", msg);
throw new DAOException(msg, e);
} catch (IllegalStateException | IllegalAccessException | InvocationTargetException | NoSuchMethodException e) {
final String msg = String.format("A internal error has occurred. Error = ", e);
//log.error("[login] - Ended with an error. ", msg);
throw new DAOException(msg, e);
}
return toResponse;
}
}
Then, I have two classes (posted below), 'RetryCallUssdJob' and 'SendErrorDetail' that use 'QueryDaoImpl' as composed object to do the database logic.
(I'm using Spring to inject the Dao beans)
Example of RetryCallUssdJob class
#Component
public class RetryCallUssdJob {
private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(RetryCallUssdJob.class);
#Autowired
private QueueDao queueDao;
public synchronized void execute() {
here i'm using the queueDao instance injected by the spring context
}
}
Example of SendErrorDetail class
public class SendErrorDetailHandlerImpl implements ISendErrorDetailHandler {
private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SendErrorDetailHandlerImpl.class);
#Autowired
private QueueDao queueDaoImpl;
#Override
public BaseRespVO execute(Map<String, Object> params) {
here i'm using the queueDao instance injected by the spring context
}
}
I would like to know how to make output of 'QueryDaoImpl' logger redirected to different log files depending on what calling class is?
Thanks in advance.
This is tricky, I'd do one of two things:
1) Pass in the Logger in on the method call
or
2) Have different marker interfaces for the DAO that have different loggers injected by spring.
1 is easier, 2 is more declarative.
public static Logger getLogger() {
final Throwable t = new Throwable();
final StackTraceElement methodCaller = t.getStackTrace()[1];
final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(methodCaller.getClassName());
logger.setLevel(ResourceManager.LOGLEVEL);
return logger;
}
This method would return a logger that knows the class it's logging for.
Any ideas against it?
Many years later: https://github.com/yanchenko/droidparts/blob/master/droidparts/src/org/droidparts/util/L.java
The MethodHandles class (as of Java 7) includes a Lookup class that, from a static context, can find and return the name of the current class. Consider the following example:
import java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles;
public class Main {
private static final Class clazz = MethodHandles.lookup().lookupClass();
private static final String CLASSNAME = clazz.getSimpleName();
public static void main( String args[] ) {
System.out.println( CLASSNAME );
}
}
When run this produces:
Main
For a logger, you could use:
private static Logger LOGGER =
Logger.getLogger(MethodHandles.lookup().lookupClass().getSimpleName());
Creating a stack trace is a relatively slow operation. Your caller already knows what class and method it is in, so the effort is wasted. This aspect of your solution is inefficient.
Even if you use static class information, you should not fetch the Logger again for each message. From the author of Log4j,Ceki Gülcü:
The most common error in wrapper classes is the invocation of the Logger.getLogger method on each log request. This is guaranteed to wreak havoc on your application's performance. Really!!!
This is the conventional, efficient idiom for getting a Logger is during class initialization:
private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(MyClass.class);
Note that this gives you a separate Logger for each type in a hierarchy. If you come up with a method that invokes getClass() on an instance, you will see messages logged by a base type showing up under the subtype's logger. Maybe this is desirable in some cases, but I find it confusing (and I tend to favor composition over inheritance anyway).
Obviously, using the dynamic type via getClass() will require you to obtain the logger at least once per instance, rather than once per class like the recommended idiom using static type information.
I guess it adds a lot of overhead for every class. Every class has to be 'looked up'. You create new Throwable objects to do that... These throwables don't come for free.
We actually have something quite similar in a LogUtils class. Yes, it's kind of icky, but the advantages are worth it as far as I'm concerned. We wanted to make sure we didn't have any overhead from it being repeatedly called though, so ours (somewhat hackily) ensures that it can ONLY be called from a static initializer context, a la:
private static final Logger LOG = LogUtils.loggerForThisClass();
It will fail if it's invoked from a normal method, or from an instance initializer (i.e. if the 'static' was left off above) to reduce the risk of performance overhead. The method is:
public static Logger loggerForThisClass() {
// We use the third stack element; second is this method, first is .getStackTrace()
StackTraceElement myCaller = Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[2];
Assert.equal("<clinit>", myCaller.getMethodName());
return Logger.getLogger(myCaller.getClassName());
}
Anyone who asks what advantage does this have over
= Logger.getLogger(MyClass.class);
has probably never had to deal with someone who copies and pastes that line from somewhere else and forgets to change the class name, leaving you dealing with a class which sends all its stuff to another logger.
Assuming you are keeping static refs to the loggers, here's a standalone static singleton:
public class LoggerUtils extends SecurityManager
{
public static Logger getLogger()
{
String className = new LoggerUtils().getClassName();
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(className);
return logger;
}
private String getClassName()
{
return getClassContext()[2].getName();
}
}
Usage is nice and clean:
Logger logger = LoggerUtils.getLogger();
For every class that you use this with, you're going to have to look up the Logger anyway, so you might as well just use a static Logger in those classes.
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(MyClass.class.getName());
Then you just reference that logger when you need to do your log messages. Your method does the same thing that the static Log4J Logger does already so why reinvent the wheel?
A good alternative is to use (one of) the lombok logs annotations :
https://projectlombok.org/features/Log.html
It generate the corresponding log statement with the current class.
Then the best thing is mix of two .
public class LoggerUtil {
public static Level level=Level.ALL;
public static java.util.logging.Logger getLogger() {
final Throwable t = new Throwable();
final StackTraceElement methodCaller = t.getStackTrace()[1];
final java.util.logging.Logger logger = java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(methodCaller.getClassName());
logger.setLevel(level);
return logger;
}
}
And then in every class:
private static final Logger LOG = LoggerUtil.getLogger();
in code :
LOG.fine("debug that !...");
You get static logger that you can just copy&paste in every class and with no overhead ...
Alaa
From reading through all the other feedback on this site, I created the following for use with Log4j:
package com.edsdev.testapp.util;
import java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap;
import org.apache.log4j.Level;
import org.apache.log4j.Priority;
public class Logger extends SecurityManager {
private static ConcurrentHashMap<String, org.apache.log4j.Logger> loggerMap = new ConcurrentHashMap<String, org.apache.log4j.Logger>();
public static org.apache.log4j.Logger getLog() {
String className = new Logger().getClassName();
if (!loggerMap.containsKey(className)) {
loggerMap.put(className, org.apache.log4j.Logger.getLogger(className));
}
return loggerMap.get(className);
}
public String getClassName() {
return getClassContext()[3].getName();
}
public static void trace(Object message) {
getLog().trace(message);
}
public static void trace(Object message, Throwable t) {
getLog().trace(message, t);
}
public static boolean isTraceEnabled() {
return getLog().isTraceEnabled();
}
public static void debug(Object message) {
getLog().debug(message);
}
public static void debug(Object message, Throwable t) {
getLog().debug(message, t);
}
public static void error(Object message) {
getLog().error(message);
}
public static void error(Object message, Throwable t) {
getLog().error(message, t);
}
public static void fatal(Object message) {
getLog().fatal(message);
}
public static void fatal(Object message, Throwable t) {
getLog().fatal(message, t);
}
public static void info(Object message) {
getLog().info(message);
}
public static void info(Object message, Throwable t) {
getLog().info(message, t);
}
public static boolean isDebugEnabled() {
return getLog().isDebugEnabled();
}
public static boolean isEnabledFor(Priority level) {
return getLog().isEnabledFor(level);
}
public static boolean isInfoEnabled() {
return getLog().isInfoEnabled();
}
public static void setLevel(Level level) {
getLog().setLevel(level);
}
public static void warn(Object message) {
getLog().warn(message);
}
public static void warn(Object message, Throwable t) {
getLog().warn(message, t);
}
}
Now in your code all you need is
Logger.debug("This is a test");
or
Logger.error("Look what happened Ma!", e);
If you need more exposure to log4j methods, just delegate them from the Logger class listed above.
You could of course just use Log4J with the appropriate pattern layout:
For example, for the class name "org.apache.xyz.SomeClass", the pattern %C{1} will output "SomeClass".
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/PatternLayout.html
I prefer creating a (static) Logger for each class (with it's explicit class name). I than use the logger as is.
You don't need to create a new Throwable object. You can just call
Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[1]
I just have the following line at the beginning of most of my classes.
private static final Logger log =
LoggerFactory.getLogger(new Throwable().getStackTrace()[0].getClassName());
yes there is some overhead the very first time an object of that class is created, but I work mostly in webapps, so adding microseconds onto a 20 second startup isn't really a problem.
Google Flogger logging API supports this e.g.
private static final FluentLogger logger = FluentLogger.forEnclosingClass();
See https://github.com/google/flogger for more details.
A nice way to do this from Java 7 onwards:
private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MethodHandles.lookup().lookupClass());
The logger can be static and that fine.
Here its using the SLF4J API
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
But in principal can be used with any logging framework. If the logger needs a string argument add toString()
Simple and trivial OLD SCHOOL:
Just create your own class and pass there class name, method name + comment (if class /method changed they're refactored automatically Shift+F6)
public class MyLogs {
public static void LOG(String theClass, String theMethod, String theComment) {
Log.d("MY_TAG", "class: " + theClass + " meth : " + theMethod + " comm : " + theComment);
}
}
and just use it anywhere in the app (no context required, no initialzation, no extra libs and no look up) - can be used for any programing language!
MyLogs.LOG("MainActivity", "onCreate", "Hello world");
this will print in your console:
MY_TAG class: MainActivity meth: onCreate comm: Hello world
Why not?
public static Logger getLogger(Object o) {
final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(o.getClass());
logger.setLevel(ResourceManager.LOGLEVEL);
return logger;
}
And then when you need a logger for a class:
getLogger(this).debug("Some log message")
This mechanism puts in a lot of extra effort at runtime.
If you use Eclipse as your IDE, consider using Log4e. This handy plugin will generate logger declarations for you using your favourite logging framework. A fraction more effort at coding time, but much less work at runtime.
Unless you really need your Logger to be static, you could use
final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(getClass());

Take a look at Logger class from jcabi-log. It does exactly what you're looking for, providing a collection of static methods. You don't need to embed loggers into classes any more:
import com.jcabi.log.Logger;
class Foo {
public void bar() {
Logger.info(this, "doing something...");
}
}
Logger sends all logs to SLF4J, which you can redirect to any other logging facility, in runtime.
I have a Singleton/Factory object that I'd like to write a JUnit test for. The Factory method decides which implementing class to instantiate based upon a classname in a properties file on the classpath. If no properties file is found, or the properties file does not contain the classname key, then the class will instantiate a default implementing class.
Since the factory keeps a static instance of the Singleton to use once it has been instantiated, to be able to test the "failover" logic in the Factory method I would need to run each test method in a different classloader.
Is there any way with JUnit (or with another unit testing package) to do this?
edit: here is some of the Factory code that is in use:
private static MyClass myClassImpl = instantiateMyClass();
private static MyClass instantiateMyClass() {
MyClass newMyClass = null;
String className = null;
try {
Properties props = getProperties();
className = props.getProperty(PROPERTY_CLASSNAME_KEY);
if (className == null) {
log.warn("instantiateMyClass: Property [" + PROPERTY_CLASSNAME_KEY
+ "] not found in properties, using default MyClass class [" + DEFAULT_CLASSNAME + "]");
className = DEFAULT_CLASSNAME;
}
Class MyClassClass = Class.forName(className);
Object MyClassObj = MyClassClass.newInstance();
if (MyClassObj instanceof MyClass) {
newMyClass = (MyClass) MyClassObj;
}
}
catch (...) {
...
}
return newMyClass;
}
private static Properties getProperties() throws IOException {
Properties props = new Properties();
InputStream stream = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(PROPERTIES_FILENAME);
if (stream != null) {
props.load(stream);
}
else {
log.error("getProperties: could not load properties file [" + PROPERTIES_FILENAME + "] from classpath, file not found");
}
return props;
}
This question might be old but since this was the nearest answer I found when I had this problem I though I'd describe my solution.
Using JUnit 4
Split your tests up so that there is one test method per class (this solution only changes classloaders between classes, not between methods as the parent runner gathers all the methods once per class)
Add the #RunWith(SeparateClassloaderTestRunner.class) annotation to your test classes.
Create the SeparateClassloaderTestRunner to look like this:
public class SeparateClassloaderTestRunner extends BlockJUnit4ClassRunner {
public SeparateClassloaderTestRunner(Class<?> clazz) throws InitializationError {
super(getFromTestClassloader(clazz));
}
private static Class<?> getFromTestClassloader(Class<?> clazz) throws InitializationError {
try {
ClassLoader testClassLoader = new TestClassLoader();
return Class.forName(clazz.getName(), true, testClassLoader);
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
throw new InitializationError(e);
}
}
public static class TestClassLoader extends URLClassLoader {
public TestClassLoader() {
super(((URLClassLoader)getSystemClassLoader()).getURLs());
}
#Override
public Class<?> loadClass(String name) throws ClassNotFoundException {
if (name.startsWith("org.mypackages.")) {
return super.findClass(name);
}
return super.loadClass(name);
}
}
}
Note I had to do this to test code running in a legacy framework which I couldn't change. Given the choice I'd reduce the use of statics and/or put test hooks in to allow the system to be reset. It may not be pretty but it allows me to test an awful lot of code that would be difficult otherwise.
Also this solution breaks anything else that relies on classloading tricks such as Mockito.
When I run into these sort of situations I prefer to use what is a bit of a hack. I might instead expose a protected method such as reinitialize(), then invoke this from the test to effectively set the factory back to its initial state. This method only exists for the test cases, and I document it as such.
It is a bit of a hack, but it's a lot easier than other options and you won't need a 3rd party lib to do it (though if you prefer a cleaner solution, there probably are some kind of 3rd party tools out there you could use).
You can use Reflection to set myClassImpl by calling instantiateMyClass() again. Take a look at this answer to see example patterns for playing around with private methods and variables.
If executing Junit via the Ant task you can set fork=true to execute every class of tests in it's own JVM. Also put each test method in its own class and they will each load and initialise their own version of MyClass. It's extreme but very effective.
Below you can find a sample that does not need a separate JUnit test runner and works also with classloading tricks such as Mockito.
