Method Detail

getChatlogSpecClone

public static XMLResourceSpec getChatlogSpecClone()

Returns a generic chat log spec that can be customized.

Returns:

a generic chat log spec that can be customized

log

public static void log(java.lang.String message,
                       XMLResourceSpec spec)

Writes a message to an XML log file. If the number of entries has exceeded ROLLOVER, the file will be renamed and a new file created. Note that the approach currently used has an important defect: it only counts entries during the runtime of the bot; it will not count entries in an existing log file, so if the bot is restarted many times and ROLLOVER is rather large, actual logfiles may exceed the limit significantly.

Parameters:

message - the text of the log event

spec - the log spec
