CoreLogger Class
CoreLogger Class
The Ocean CoreLogger class is a facade that adds convenience methods to Microsoft
Enterprise Logging. The methods provide error, warning, information, and debug
messages. The messages appear in the log file defined by the application configuration
file.
The CoreLogger class method definitions are:
public class CoreLogger
{
Info (string msg);
Info (string msg, string category);
Warn (string msg);
Warn (string msg, string category);
Error (string msg);
Error (string msg, string category);
Error (string msg, Exception e);
Error (string msg, string category, Exception e);
Debug (string msg);
DebugPublic (string msg);
Write (string msg, string category, TraceEventType severity);
}
The log file name and location is controlled by the product family but is typically defined in
the applications configuration file. Messages output to the log file will contain time,
message category, username, network information, and the message text.
The Debug method sends its output to the system standard output and the application log
file. If you are running your application from Visual Studio, then you will see the debug
messages in the Visual Studio Output tab frame.
Messages in the application log file are categorized. The error, warning, and information
messages appear in the General category by default or in a user controlled category if the
category argument is passed. Debug messages appear in the Debug category. Providing
your own category with messages you generate helps users view the contents of the file.
