Usage Provides an object for logging output to the application log
Description The object provided is a Java object "Logger" of the logger library "Log4J" by the Apache Foundation. A complete documentation of the object therefor can be found in the Apache Log4J API Dokumentation.

It provides five methods to log messages in different log levels:
  • log.debug(message [, javaException])
