Interface Printer

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractPrinter, LevelFilteredPrinter, ProxyPrinter, WriterPrinter

public interface Printer

A very generic interface for applications to "print messages".

Like the various logging mechanisms, the underlying concept is to define several "levels" of logging, and process messages of different levels differently. Unlike logging, printing is not JVM-global, but applies only to specific contexts. In other words, it is not possible to "set" a global printer, but only to run runnables "in the context" of a printer (see Printers.withPrinter(Printer, Runnable)). This is useful e.g. in multi-threaded environments like tasks in a build system or a script.
