Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:ConsoleHandler [NONE]
-     public class ConsoleHandler
      extends StreamHandler
This `Handler` publishes log records to `System.err`. By default the `SimpleFormatter` is used to generate brief summaries. Configuration: By default each `ConsoleHandler` is initialized using the following `LogManager` configuration properties where `<handler-name>` refers to the fully-qualified class name of the handler. If properties are not defined (or have invalid values) then the specified default values are used. <handler-name>.level specifies the default level for the `Handler` (defaults to `Level.INFO`). <handler-name>.filter specifies the name of a `Filter` class to use (defaults to no `Filter`). <handler-name>.formatter specifies the name of a `Formatter` class to use (defaults to `java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter`). <handler-name>.encoding the name of the character set encoding to use (defaults to the default platform encoding). For example, the properties for `ConsoleHandler` would be: java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level=INFO java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter=java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter For a custom handler, e.g. com.foo.MyHandler, the properties would be: com.foo.MyHandler.level=INFO com.foo.MyHandler.formatter=java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter Since: 1.4

### constructor:ConsoleHandler() [NONE]
- #### ConsoleHandler
      public ConsoleHandler()
Create a `ConsoleHandler` for `System.err`. The `ConsoleHandler` is configured based on `LogManager` properties (or their default values).

### method:publish(java.util.logging.LogRecord) [NONE]
- #### publish
      public void publish(LogRecord record)
Publish a `LogRecord`. The logging request was made initially to a `Logger` object, which initialized the `LogRecord` and forwarded it here. Overrides: `publish` in class `StreamHandler` Parameters: `record` - description of the log event. A null record is silently ignored and is not published

### method:close() [NONE]
- #### close
      public void close()
Override `StreamHandler.close` to do a flush but not to close the output stream. That is, we do not close `System.err`. Overrides: `close` in class `StreamHandler`
