Interface TraceWriterManager

All Superinterfaces:

TraceWriter

All Known Implementing Classes:

TraceWriterManagerImpl

public interface TraceWriterManager
extends TraceWriter

TraceWriterManager contains the list of TraceWriter objects that are used to implement the tracing. The list is populated at startup from the switches in a .ini file. A LogFileTraceWriter, a ConsoleTraceWriter, and a SyslogTraceWriter are available. Users can override the existing TraceWriters by setting a user implemented TraceWriter[] or adding to the existing TraceWriters. This makes it possible to add other TraceWriters that can function along with exisiting trace writers.

TraceWriter[]	getTraceWriters()
void	removeTraceWriter(TraceWriter traceWriter) Remove the TraceWriter from the array in the manager
