public abstract class AbstractDatabaseAppender<T extends AbstractDatabaseManager>

Deprecated.

Use AbstractDatabaseAppender(String, Filter, Layout, boolean, Property[], AbstractDatabaseManager).

Instantiates the base appender.

Parameters:

name - The appender name.

filter - The filter, if any, to use.

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

manager - The matching AbstractDatabaseManager implementation.

Method Detail

append

public final void append(LogEvent event)

Description copied from interface: Appender

Logs a LogEvent using whatever logic this Appender wishes to use. It is typically recommended to use a bridge pattern not only for the benefits from decoupling an Appender from its implementation, but it is also handy for sharing resources which may require some form of locking.

Parameters:

event - The LogEvent.

getLayout

public final Layout<LogEvent> getLayout()

This always returns null, as database appenders do not use a single layout. The JPA and NoSQL appenders do not use a layout at all. The JDBC appender has a layout-per-column pattern.

Specified by:

getLayout in interface Appender

Overrides:

getLayout in class AbstractAppender

Returns:

null.

getManager

public final T getManager()

Returns the underlying manager in use within this appender.

Returns:

the manager.

replaceManager

protected final void replaceManager(T manager)

Replaces the underlying manager in use within this appender. This can be useful for manually changing the way log events are written to the database without losing buffered or in-progress events. The existing manager is released only after the new manager has been installed. This method is thread-safe.

Parameters:

manager - The new manager to install.

start

public final void start()

Description copied from class: AbstractFilterable

Make the Filter available for use.

Specified by:

start in interface LifeCycle

Overrides:

start in class AbstractFilterable

stop

public boolean stop(long timeout,
                    java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit timeUnit)

Description copied from class: AbstractFilterable

Cleanup the Filter.

Specified by:

stop in interface LifeCycle2

Overrides:

stop in class AbstractFilterable

Parameters:

timeout - the maximum time to wait

timeUnit - the time unit of the timeout argument

Returns:

true if the receiver was stopped cleanly and normally, false otherwise.
