Methods

Hide/Show inherited methods

public boolean equals (Object ox)

Compare two objects for value equality.

public String getLocalizedName ()

Return the localized string name of the Level, for the current default locale.

public String getName ()

Return the non-localized string name of the Level.

public String getResourceBundleName ()

Return the level's localization resource bundle name, or null if no localization bundle is defined.

public int hashCode ()

Generate a hashcode.

publicfinal int intValue ()

Get the integer value for this level.

publicstaticsynchronized Level parse (String name) throws IllegalArgumentException

Parse a level name string into a Level.

The argument string may consist of either a level name or an integer value.

For example:

"SEVERE"
"1000"

Returns: The parsed value. Passing an integer that corresponds to a known name (eg 700) will return the associated name (eg CONFIG). Passing an integer that does not (eg 1) will return a new level name initialized to that value.
Parameters:
- name - string to be parsed
Throws:
- NullPointerException - if the name is null
- IllegalArgumentException - if the value is not valid. Valid values are integers between Integer.MIN_VALUE and Integer.MAX_VALUE, and all known level names. Known names are the levels defined by this class (i.e. FINE, FINER, FINEST), or created by this class with appropriate package access, or new levels defined or created by subclasses.
