How to write logs in text file when using java.util.logging.Logger

- Create a
FileHandlerthat writes to a text file, and specify the logging format. Here is an example of how to do this:
FileHandler fileHandler = new FileHandler("mylog.txt");
SimpleFormatter formatter = new SimpleFormatter();
fileHandler.setFormatter(formatter);- Add the
FileHandlerto yourLoggerinstance. Here is an example of how to do this:
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("MyLog");
logger.addHandler(fileHandler);- Use the
Loggerinstance to log messages as needed. Here is an example of how to do this:
logger.info("This is a log message");That's it! Your log messages will now be written to the text file mylog.txt.
