Method Detail

getConfig

public java.util.Hashtable getConfig()
Gets the configuration of this object.

Specified by:
getConfig in interface RASILogger
Returns:
A Hashtable containing the configuration. This object inserts the following key/value pairs into the configuration:

organization
The organization.
product
The product.
component
The component.
messageFile
A message file name, used to translate message keys.
suppressedKeys
A blank-delimited set of message keys which are not to be processed.

All values are Strings. The parent and extensions of this object may add additional keys.


setConfig

public void setConfig(java.util.Hashtable ht)
Sets the configuration of this object. This method is used by a RASManager to initialize a RAS object. It should not be necessary for an application to use this method.

Specified by:
setConfig in interface RASILogger
Parameters:
ht - A Hashtable containing the configuration. This object searches for the following keys:

organization
The organization.
product
The product.
component
The component.
messageFile
A message file name, used to translate message keys.
suppressedKeys
A blank-delimited set of message keys which are not to be processed.

All values are Strings. If a key is not found, an internal default for that element is set instead. The parent and extensions of this object may use additional keys.


getMessageMask

public long getMessageMask()
Gets the mask which defines the set of message types that will be processed. Possible values are defined by the logical OR of the RASIMessageEvent TYPE_XXXX constants.

Specified by:
getMessageMask in interface RASIMaskChangeGenerator
Returns:
The message mask.

setMessageMask

public void setMessageMask(long mask)
Sets the mask which defines the set of message types that will be processed. Possible values are defined by the logical OR of the RASIMessageEvent TYPE_XXXX constants. The mask value is not validated against these types.

Specified by:
