How to enable logging for apache commons HttpClient on Android


To enable logging for apache commons HttpClient in normal Java application I used:

System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.Log", "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog");
System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.showdatetime", "true");
System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.httpclient.wire", "debug");
System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.org.apache.commons.httpclient", "debug");

But on android I don't see logs in LogCat.

Am I missing some thing?


Solution

  • Here is a solution (without digging into details)

    Console:

    adb shell setprop log.tag.httpclient.wire.header VERBOSE
    adb shell setprop log.tag.httpclient.wire.content VERBOSE
    

    Code:

    java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("httpclient.wire.header").setLevel(java.util.logging.Level.FINEST);
    java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("httpclient.wire.content").setLevel(java.util.logging.Level.FINEST);
    

    Test:

    java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("httpclient.wire.content").log(java.util.logging.Level.CONFIG, "hola");
