                           java.lang.String trace)
Log a client trace. The client may be in some error state, so all access to the client parameter should be checked.

trace - The trace to log.

trace

public abstract void trace(java.lang.String msg)
Log a server trace.

Parameters:
msg - The trace to emit.

sync

public abstract void sync()
Flush any in core logger state back to disk. Some loggers may use memory cache before writing any data to the disk this method ensures that there state is saved to stable storage.


shutdown

public abstract void shutdown()
Shutdown this logger object. Each server will close the shutdown method of the logger before shuting itself down.

public abstract void initialize(httpd server)
Initialize this logger for the provided server. No call to any methods of the logger will be made before this logger is initialized for some server.

Parameters:
server - The server to which this logger should be initialized.
