Interface CloneableLogManager

All Superinterfaces:

LogManager

All Known Implementing Classes:

FileLogManager, SimpleLogManager

public interface CloneableLogManager
extends LogManager

If you implement this interface, then your log manager can be cloned. This is usually used so different nodes can have different log managers. The simple log manager uses the @param detail arg as a prefix to each line corresponding to that logger. Another example may be logging to multiple files, but using the "detail" in the filename to indicate which node the log corresponds to. A PastryNodeFactory should clone the LogManager for each node if the pastry_factory_multipleNodes parameter is set to true.
