Logging Service

Note: The Logging Service is deprecated in SAS 9.3. You should use Log4j to perform logging tasks instead.
The Logging Service enables applications to do the following:
  • send run-time messages to one or more output destinations, including consoles, files, and socket connections.
  • configure and control the format of information sent to a particular destination. Configuration can be performed through static configuration files or by invoking run-time methods that control logging output.
  • perform remote logging, which involves sending log messages generated in one Java virtual machine (JVM) to another JVM.
  • perform logging either by user session or by JVM.
For detailed usage documentation and examples, see com.sas.services.logging in the Foundation Services class documentation at http://support.sas.com/rnd/javadoc/93.
For information about configuring a Logging Service, see Modifying the Logging Service Configuration in SAS Foundation Services: Administrator's Guide in the SAS Foundation Services: Administrator's Guide.
