Logging Utilities
com.srbenoit.log
This package extends the Java logging facilities provided under java.util.logging with a custom formatter that presents a much more compact format for log messages, and provides new base classes for Object, Thread and JPanel that have a static Logger named LOG defined and configured with this formatter. By extending one of these classes, logging can be performed by invoking, for example, LOG.info("hello world");.
