log level for Birt Viewer app [message #56459]

Hi list,

I integrated the birt viewer into my app. How can I set the log level for
the output of the viewer?

Thanks in advance,

Florian

Search for setLogConfig in Viewer code. The method is defined for
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.EngineConfig.

I don't want to do this programmatically, I want to configure it...
the charting process produces masses of INFO's going to stdout, I think
there is a way to configure it but I don't know it...

best regards,
Florian

Florian,

We will have a parameter defined in web.xml to specify the log level so
that you don't need to change it in your code.

Also are you sure you see the info in the stdout? I assume the chart
component's log should finally be directed to the engine's logger and log
info should be written into the engine log file rather than stdout since
in engine code, we already cut off the link between the engine's root
logger and default tomcat logger.

In web.xml i can set the dir of the engine log. This works. setting log
level doesn't work. Everything coming from the creating the charts and so
on is not logged into the engines logfile but to stdout...

e.g.:
[INFO]: ChartReportItemPresentationImpl: onRowSets(...) - building chart
[INFO]: Writing to PNG file at C:\dev\tomcat\temp\chart30416.PNG

this is very annoying...

I am also getting this behaviour. Is there any way of turning off info
messages using a config file like web.xml.

Hello,
Thru the BIRT API, you can write this 2 lines.
And no outputs will come disturbing your logs.

EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();
config.setLogConfig("",Level.OFF);

Level is from java.util.logging package.

It is runnig for me, if you find another solutions, mail me ?

Cheers,

Phil

This doesn't work for me...
The only 'set' methods available on config object are:
- setConfigurationVariable (String, String)
- setEmitterConfiguration(String, Object)
- setEngineContext(IPlatformContext)
- setEngineHome(String)
- setStatusHandler(IStatusHandler)
- setTempDir(String)

Can anyone explain how to disable logging for BIRT 1.0.1 (using
web.xml or any other way).

I don't know apache common logging package, and I believe I just need
an example...

Can anyone help?

Thank you for the advice.
I finally found out the java runtime we used still was set to 1.3.
So, the 'setLogConfig' method wasn't shown by eclipse (using
auto-complete by ctrl-space), since one of it's parameters is a
java.util.log.Level (log package isn't available in Java 1.3)...

But now I've got it, and i set the level to level.OFF! It works fine
:)

Thanks a lot

Frédéric.
