EF.Logger.TextFile

A logging endpoint that appends log messages to a text file.

TEFTextFileLogEndpoint class

Log endpoint that writes each message, prefixed with a timestamp, as a new line in a text file. Created as a singleton in the unit's initialization section. The target file defaults to the module name with a '.log' extension and can be overridden through configuration (see the 'TextFile/FileName' key) or the FileName property.

class procedure CreateSingletonInstance;

Creates the singleton instance of this endpoint.

class procedure FreeSingletonInstance;

Destroys the singleton instance of this endpoint.

procedure AfterConstruction;

Sets the default file name (the module name with a '.log' extension).

destructor Destroy;

Closes the underlying stream and destroys the endpoint.

property FileName: string read FFileName write SetFileName;

Full path of the log file. Changing it closes the currently open stream so that the new file is used on the next write.
