3. What’s Available in Python?
Full implementation of the C++ Logging System that is far
easier to use and add support for including an ACS
component or client’s name in the log message.

4. Example Normally you would just use the getLogger method
#!/usr/bin/env python
from Acspy.Common.Log import getLogger
logger = getLogger() #Get a Logger instance
logger.logInfo('Test INFO message')
logger.logTrace('Test TRACE message')
logger.logDebug('Test DEBUG message')
logger.logWarning('Test WARNING message')
logger.logAlert('Test ALERT message')
logger.logCritical('Test CRITICAL message')
logger.logEmergency('Test EMERGENCY message')
logger.logNotice('Test NOTICE message')
Normally you would
just use the
getLogger method
available from the
ContainerServices
Class (i.e.,
PySimpleClient and
ACSComponent).
An additional
Parameter (i.e., a
PySimpleClient or
ACSComponent) could
have been provided
here thereby
appending it’s name
to all log messages.
Notice a similar
pattern emerging?

5. Example (continued) Look familiar?
import ACSErrTypeACSCourseImpl
anError = ACSErrTypeACSCourseImpl.TargetNotFoundExImpl()
logger.logErrorTrace(anError.getErrorTrace())
Look familiar?
Or you can just simply use the “log”
method of anError…
