virtual ~Layout ( )

virtual

Member Function Documentation

void addRef ( ) const

virtual

Reimplemented from ObjectImpl.

virtual void appendFooter ( LogString &  output, log4cxx::helpers::Pool &  p  )

virtual

Append the footer for the layout format.

The base class does nothing.

Reimplemented in HTMLLayout.

virtual void appendHeader ( LogString &  output, log4cxx::helpers::Pool &  p  )

virtual

Append the header for the layout format.

The base class does nothing.

Reimplemented in HTMLLayout.

virtual void format ( LogString &  output, const spi::LoggingEventPtr &  event, log4cxx::helpers::Pool &  pool  ) const

pure virtual

Implement this method to create your own layout format.

Implemented in PatternLayout, TTCCLayout, XMLLayout, HTMLLayout, and SimpleLayout.

virtual LogString getContentType ( ) const

virtual

Returns the content type output by this layout.

The base class returns "text/plain".

Reimplemented in HTMLLayout.

virtual bool ignoresThrowable ( ) const

pure virtual

If the layout handles the throwable object contained within LoggingEvent, then the layout should return false.

Otherwise, if the layout ignores throwable object, then the layout should return true.

The SimpleLayout, TTCCLayout, PatternLayout all return true. The XMLLayout returns false.

Implemented in PatternLayout, TTCCLayout, XMLLayout, HTMLLayout, and SimpleLayout.

void releaseRef ( ) const

virtual

Reimplemented from ObjectImpl.
