        printObject=true)
public final class ConsoleAppender
extends AbstractOutputStreamAppender<OutputStreamManager>

Appends log events to System.out or System.err using a layout specified by the user. The default target is System.out.

TODO Accessing System.out or System.err as a byte stream instead of a writer bypasses the JVM's knowledge of the proper encoding. (RG) Encoding is handled within the Layout. Typically, a Layout will generate a String and then call getBytes which may use a configured encoding or the system default. OTOH, a Writer cannot print byte streams.

Deprecated.

Deprecated in 2.7; use newBuilder().

Creates a Console Appender.

Parameters:

layout - The layout to use (required).

filter - The Filter or null.

targetStr - The target ("SYSTEM_OUT" or "SYSTEM_ERR"). The default is "SYSTEM_OUT".

name - The name of the Appender (required).

follow - If true will follow changes to the underlying output stream.

ignore - If "true" (default) exceptions encountered when appending events are logged; otherwise they are propagated to the caller.

Returns:

The ConsoleAppender.

Deprecated.

Deprecated in 2.7; use newBuilder().

Creates a Console Appender.

Parameters:

layout - The layout to use (required).

filter - The Filter or null.

target - The target (SYSTEM_OUT or SYSTEM_ERR). The default is SYSTEM_OUT.

name - The name of the Appender (required).

follow - If true will follow changes to the underlying output stream.

direct - If true will write directly to FileDescriptor and bypass System.out/System.err.

ignoreExceptions - If "true" (default) exceptions encountered when appending events are logged; otherwise they are propagated to the caller.

Returns:

The ConsoleAppender.
