Class WartsLogger

java.lang.Object
  org.afcs.warts.util.WartsLogger

public final class WartsLogger

extends java.lang.Object

The WartsLogger class provides logging facilities for WARTS application. Currently this class is a custom implementation of select methods in the java.util.logging.Logger from JDK 1.4.1. This means that WARTS can be run using JDK 1.3.1, but trivially changed to use the java.util.logging API at a later date by simply changing the implementation of this class.
