capturing log/debug msg for posting in an applet TextField

Question

Hi,

I'm need to EDT's ftp client package. I'm trying to write an applet and would like to use a TextField object to print out messages from the Logger object. I've tried using calling FTPMessageCollector.getLog() method after some of the FtpClient object method calls such as setRemoteHost(), connect(), and it only returned the string "220-n1."

I would like to know if there's any other ways I can capture messages from the Logger object.

Thanks.

Answer 1

the message collector collects messages going to & from the server only.

it is easy enough to write your own logger appender - take a look at FileAppender, and simply implement StringAppender

Answer 2

Thanks.

I'll look into that.
