Interface LoggerRepository

  • public interface LoggerRepository
    A LoggerRepository is used to create and retrieve Loggers. The relation between loggers in a repository depends on the repository but typically loggers are arranged in a named hierarchy.

    In addition to the creational methods, a LoggerRepository can be queried for existing loggers, can act as a point of registry for events related to loggers.
