Print a brief summary of the LogRecord
in a human readable format. The summary will typically be 1 or 2 lines.
Configuration: The SimpleFormatter
is initialized with the format string specified in the java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format
property to format the log messages. This property can be defined in the logging properties configuration file or as a system property. If this property is set in both the logging properties and system properties, the format string specified in the system property will be used. If this property is not defined or the given format string is illegal, the default format is implementation-specific.

format
open fun format(record: LogRecord!): String!
Format the given LogRecord.
The formatting can be customized by specifying the format string in the java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format
property. The given LogRecord
will be formatted as if by calling:
java.lang.String#format(format, date, source, logger, level, message, thrown);
format
- thejava.util.Formatter
format string specified in thejava.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format
property or the default format.date
- aDate
object representing event time of the log record.source
- a string representing the caller, if available; otherwise, the logger's name.logger
- the logger's name.level
- the log level.message
- the formatted log message returned from theFormatter#formatMessage(LogRecord)
method. It usesjava.text
formatting and does not use thejava.util.Formatter format
argument.thrown
- a string representing the throwable associated with the log record and its backtrace beginning with a newline character, if any; otherwise, an empty string.
Some example formats:
-
java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format="%4$s: %5$s [%1$tc]%n"
This prints 1 line with the log level (
4$
), the log message (5$
) and the timestamp (1$
) in a square bracket.WARNING: warning message [Tue Mar 22 13:11:31 PDT 2011]
-
java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format="%1$tc %2$s%n%4$s: %5$s%6$s%n"
This prints 2 lines where the first line includes the timestamp (
1$
) and the source (2$
); the second line includes the log level (4$
) and the log message (5$
) followed with the throwable and its backtrace (6$
), if any:Tue Mar 22 13:11:31 PDT 2011 MyClass fatal SEVERE: several message with an exception java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: invalid argument at MyClass.mash(MyClass.java:9) at MyClass.crunch(MyClass.java:6) at MyClass.main(MyClass.java:3)
-
java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format="%1$tb %1$td, %1$tY %1$tl:%1$tM:%1$tS %1$Tp %2$s%n%4$s: %5$s%n"
This prints 2 lines similar to the example above with a different date/time formatting and does not print the throwable and its backtrace:
Mar 22, 2011 1:11:31 PM MyClass fatal SEVERE: several message with an exception
This method can also be overridden in a subclass. It is recommended to use the Formatter#formatMessage
convenience method to localize and format the message field.
