Class Debug

java.lang.Object
  extended by com.mckoi.debug.Debug

Deprecated. use DebugLogger implementations instead.

public final class Debug
extends java.lang.Object

This is a static class that should be used to output debugging information. Since all debug messages go through this class, we can easily turn the messages on and off, or specify output of different levels of debugging information. We can also filter out the debugging information and output it to different output streams.

Method Detail

setOutput

public static final void setOutput(java.io.Writer out)
Deprecated. 
Sets up the OutputStream to which the debug information is to be output to.


setDebugLevel

public static final void setDebugLevel(int level)
Deprecated. 
Sets the debug level that's to be output to the stream. Set to 255 to stop all output to the stream.


listenToEventDispatcher

public static final void listenToEventDispatcher()
Deprecated. 
Sets up the system so that the debug messenger will intercept event dispatch errors and output the event to the debug stream.


isInterestedIn

public static final boolean isInterestedIn(int level)
Deprecated. 
Queries the current debug level. Returns true if the debug listener is interested in debug information of this given level. This can be used to speed up certain complex debug displaying operations where the debug listener isn't interested in the information be presented.


write

public static final void write(int level,
                               java.lang.Object ob,
                               java.lang.String message)
Deprecated. 
This writes the given debugging string. It filters out any messages that are below the 'debug_level' variable. The 'object' variable specifies the object that made the call. 'level' must be between 0 and 255. A message of 'level' 255 will always print.


write

public static final void write(int level,
                               java.lang.Class cla,
                               java.lang.String message)
Deprecated. 

write

public static final void write(int level,
                               java.lang.String class_string,
                               java.lang.String message)
Deprecated. 

write

public static final void write(java.lang.Object ob,
                               java.lang.String message)
Deprecated. this is a legacy debug method.


writeException

public static final void writeException(java.lang.Throwable e)
Deprecated. 
This writes the given Exception. Exceptions are always output to the log stream.


writeException

public static final void writeException(int level,
                                        java.lang.Throwable e)
Deprecated. 
This writes the given Exception but gives it a 'debug_level'. This is so we can write out a warning exception.
