      • getText

        java.lang.String getText()
        Deprecated.

        void setAttribute(java.lang.String name,
                java.lang.Object attrib)
        Deprecated. 
        Sets an attribute, saving it as part of a RAS event. If the name or the attribute are null, nothing is saved.

        attrib - The attribute associated with the name.

      • setMessageEvent

        void setMessageEvent(boolean flag)
        Deprecated. 
        Sets a flag that that indicates whether this object is classified as a message event or a trace event.
        Parameters:
        flag - true if this object is a message event and false if it is a trace event.

      • isMessageEvent

        boolean isMessageEvent()
        Deprecated. 
        Determines if this object is a message event or a trace event.
        Returns:
        true if this object is a message event and false if it is a trace event.

      • getSupportedTypes

        java.util.Hashtable getSupportedTypes()
        Deprecated. 
        Gets the complete set of event types supported by this class.

        This method can be used by a graphical log manager to display the set of types and allow a user to select those to be monitored. Every extending class should override this method to add the types it supports to the Hashtable returned by its parent.

        Returns:
        A Hashtable containing the values of all of the event types. The names of the types are used as keys and are returned in the current locale. The type values, normally kept as ints, are returned as Integers because of the Hashtable requirement that all elements be Objects.

      • maskLongValue

        long maskLongValue(java.lang.String types)
        Deprecated. 
        Converts a String representation of a message or trace mask to its long equivalent. The string must have the following format: 
         String types = "TYPE_INFO TYPE_WARN";
        Unknown values in the String are ignored.
        Parameters:
        types - The blank-delimited String to be converted.
        Returns:
        The long equivalent of the String, formed by the logical OR of each element in the String.

      • maskToString

        java.lang.String maskToString(long types)
        Deprecated. 
        Converts a long containing the logical OR of one or more event types to its String equivalent. The string will have the following format: 
         String types = "TYPE_INFO TYPE_WARN";
        Every extending class should override this method to add the types it supports to the value returned by its parent.

        Unknown values in the long are ignored.

        Parameters:
        types - The message or trace mask.
        Returns:
