Is there a way to write to the Activity logger (and the Error logger as well I guess) from withing a custom element?

There is a way, although I'm curious as to what Paul Tindall would have to say about using it (good/bad ok?).
You can import com.audium.server.logger.EventFactory
and then throw your catched exception to:
EventFactory.handleJavaAPIError()
That will generate an Error log entry just like an Audium Exception woudl without actually throwing one.
handleJavaAPIError() is looking for (APIBase api, int elementType, String elementName, String message, Throwable ex) EventFactory.handleJavaAPIError(api, 4, api.getCurrentElement(), toLog, ex);
Subject: RE: Custom Element Activity log Replied by: Asher Schweigart on 02-12-2013 03:26:59 PM Thanks Hemal, that's what I was looking for. Nice to have the Error method as well; I may use that in some other elements that I currently just save the error message text to an element variable.
Subject: RE: Custom Element Activity log Replied by: Asher Schweigart on 02-12-2013 03:42:24 PM I tried your method for sending it to the error log. handleJavaAPIError() is looking for datatype "ControllerData". I'm not quite sure what that is, or what I need to import to be able to use that datatype. Also, do you have any idea what the elementType integer refers to? Is there a chart somewhere that show the numbers that correspond to the different element types?

Asher,
You can also pass handleJavaAPIError() an instance of ComponentAPI (aka SessionAPI), from which it will get the controller data. handleJavaAPIError() is just an overloaded method in the EventFactory class.
the int to pass represents the component type. You can just pass a 4 for a standard element. I cant recall where this is defined.
None of this is in the Javadocs, thus the reason I was wondering what Paul would say on the usage of the method, but the EventFactory class is in the framework.jar along with the rest of the Audium API, so not sure about support caveats etc.... I would assume using the method directly is unsupported. not sure.
