Logger Plugin

This plugin provides logging support for Actionscript applications, not to be confused with the logging support for the ASDT plugins themselves (thats done by org.asdt.tools and org.asdt.log4j)

The logger is composed of 2 main pieces.

  • Actionscript Code Users applications need to have the logging code on their classpath (and setup the MTASC trace parameter to Log.addMessage) so that trace statements are sent to the eclipse logging console. The logging code is added to the users classpath by clicking the ‘add logger classes’ button in the classpath manager.

To implement this the classpath manager provides an extension to allow action contributions.

  • Logging console The logging console is like the flash trace panel but does useful stuff like displays different colours and can add hyperlinks to the location in code where the log occurs.
