Hi,
I have a problem where the logger messages from a plugin stops showing up
in a the logger when Jenkins has been restarted.
I am working on an SCM plugin. I have created a class where I instantiate a
logger and use it in the methods:
package dimtestplugin;
......
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
.......
public class DimoScm extends SCM {
.....
private static final Logger LOGGER =
Logger.getLogger(DimoScm.class.getName());
.......
@Override
public SCMRevisionState calcRevisionsFromBuild(AbstractBuild<?, ?> arg0,
Launcher arg1, TaskListener arg2) throws IOException,
InterruptedException {
DimRevisionState revisionState = new DimRevisionState();
//Ask for the time stamp of the latest modification in the repos based on
the path
Date latestTimestamp = branch.getLastModificationDateByPath(path);
---> LOGGER.log(Level.FINE,"calcRevisionFromBuild - latestTimeStamp: " +
latestTimestamp.toString());
revisionState.setTimeStampOfLastModification(latestTimestamp);
//return object containing the time stamp of the latest modification.
return revisionState;
}
.......
}
In Jenkins I create a logger which is connected to the specific class
'dimtestplugin.DimoScm'. When I create the logger in Jenkins the generated
log messages start appearing in the window. So far so good.
Now, if I restart Jenkins the log messages stop appearing in the logger. If
I then either create or delete a logger - it can be any of the loggers, it
does not necessarily need to be related to my plugin, the messages start
showing up again. I have created other loggers which for example logs
messages from the Subversion plugin. These loggers doesn't stop working
when I restart Jenkins.
I really need this to work because I want to use the log for debugging, and
I don't want to have to recreate the logger every time I have created a new
version of my plugin and restarted Jenkins.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Esben
