Chapter 12 Web Service Logging
Overview
HydraExpress provides two types of loggers: a Web services-specific logger, and the global Agent logger, each with a specific use:
• Use the Web services logger to log events from a client or a standalone server. While this logger is also available to server-side code, we recommend using the Agent logger for services.
• Use the Agent logger to log events from services, connectors, transports, and handlers. It is not available to client-side applications or standalone servers.
NOTE >> The Agent logger is not available to services hosted outside the Agent.
This chapter discusses the Web services logger in detail, and includes an introduction to using the global Agent logger in server applications (
“Using the Global Agent Logger in Service Code” ). For a detailed look at the global Agent logger, see
Chapter 6, “Logging,” in the HydraExpress User Guide.
