Logging in Java
Hello,
I noticed the use of oLog syntax in Java blocks of activities, but, I want to know where logging will be written? I checked catalina logs, but, I didn't find any. Could you please check?
Thanks,
Rosy

Hi Rosy,
I believe you mean setting the logging level for the particular activity in PRPC.
It should be in Pega Rules log only.
Thankyou

The logging goes to PegaRULES log file. You can find the log file links in designer studio (Pega 7 platform) at
Designer Studio -> System -> Operations -> Logs
Note that the default log level is ALERT and depending on what logging level is set for a certain activity, the logged message may or may not make it to the file.
The platform uses Log4J to do the logging and appenders are controlled by prlogging.xml file

You can find the logs in PegaRules.
oLog.error and oLog.infoForced will print automatically. Incase of oLog.debug you need to enable debug loggers .

Hello Rajiv,
I already used logging in an activitiy using Log-Message Step and putting Level = Error. But, I want to debug my java code, I cannot use System.out.println. How to use logging inside a Java block? It is using log4j as well?
Thnaks,

Hi Rosy,
You can use oLog.error(), oLog.infoForced inside a java code to print the logs as I explained in my previous response.

If your java code is a step in an activity then that activity should be set at debug logging level to see the debug statements. Similarly if the java code is in a Rule-Utility-Function, then that function should be at debug logging level and so on.
