[legend]List of all members.
Detailed Description
Send an e-mail when a specific logging event occurs, typically on errors or fatal errors.
The number of logging events delivered in this e-mail depend on the value of BufferSize option. The SMTPAppender keeps only the last BufferSize logging events in its cyclic buffer. This keeps memory requirements at a reasonable level while still delivering useful application context.
Constructor & Destructor Documentation
|
The default constructor will instantiate the appender with a spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator that will trigger on events with level ERROR or higher. |
Member Function Documentation
void activateOptions |
( |
|
) |
[virtual] |
|
|
Activate the specified options, such as the smtp host, the recipient, from, etc.
Reimplemented from AppenderSkeleton. |
|
Perform SMTPAppender specific appending actions, mainly adding the event to a cyclic buffer and checking if the event triggers an e-mail to be sent.
Implements AppenderSkeleton. |
bool checkEntryConditions |
( |
|
) |
|
|
|
This method determines if there is a sense in attempting to append.
It checks whether there is a set output target and also if there is a set layout. If these checks fail, then the boolean value false is returned. |
|
Release any resources allocated within the appender such as file handles, network connections, etc.
It is a programming error to append to a closed appender.
Implements Appender. |
int getBufferSize |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the BufferSize option. |
const String& getCharset |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the Charset option. |
const String& getEncoding |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the Encoding option. |
String getEvaluatorClass |
( |
|
) |
|
|
|
Returns value of the EvaluatorClass option. |
const String& getFrom |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the From option. |
bool getLocationInfo |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the LocationInfo option. |
const String& getSMTPHost |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the SMTPHost option. |
const String& getSubject |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the Subject option. |
const String& getTo |
( |
|
) |
const [inline] |
|
|
Returns value of the To option. |
virtual bool requiresLayout |
( |
|
) |
const [inline, virtual] |
|
|
Send the contents of the cyclic buffer as an e-mail message. |
void setBufferSize |
( |
int |
bufferSize |
) |
|
|
|
The BufferSize option takes a positive integer representing the maximum number of logging events to collect in a cyclic buffer. When the BufferSize is reached, oldest events are deleted as new events are added to the buffer. By default the size of the cyclic buffer is 512 events. |
void setCharset |
( |
const String & |
charset |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The Charset option takes a string value which should be the charset of the mail (us-ascii , iso8859_1 , iso8859_2 , iso8859_3 ). |
void setEncoding |
( |
const String & |
charset |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The Encoding option takes a string value which should be the encoding type of the mail (7bit , 8bit , base64 , binary , quoted ). |
void setEvaluatorClass |
( |
const String & |
value |
) |
|
|
|
The EvaluatorClass option takes a string value representing the name of the class implementing the spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator interface. A corresponding object will be instantiated and assigned as the triggering event evaluator for the SMTPAppender. |
void setFrom |
( |
const String & |
from |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The From option takes a string value which should be a e-mail address of the sender. |
void setLocationInfo |
( |
bool |
locationInfo |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The LocationInfo option takes a boolean value. By default, it is set to false which means there will be no effort to extract the location information related to the event. As a result, the layout that formats the events as they are sent out in an e-mail is likely to place the wrong location information (if present in the format).
Location information extraction is comparatively very slow and should be avoided unless performance is not a concern. |
void setOption |
( |
const String & |
option, |
|
|
const String & |
value |
|
) |
[virtual] |
|
void setSMTPHost |
( |
const String & |
smtpHost |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The SMTPHost option takes a string value which should be a the host name of the SMTP server that will send the e-mail message. |
void setSubject |
( |
const String & |
subject |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The Subject option takes a string value which should be a the subject of the e-mail message. |
void setTo |
( |
const String & |
to |
) |
[inline] |
|
|
The To option takes a string value which should be a comma separated list of e-mail address of the recipients. |
