Logging

I remember reading a thread here a while back that said that each plugin has their own logger.
I can't seem to find such a thread or how to do such a thing. Does anybody know?

Edit: found le thread.

Each plugin can obtain a reference to their logger with the getLogger method. the method must be called inside onEnable or later pretty much like all the methods in JavaPlugin

 

like so?

Code:

public class Village extends JavaPlugin {
    public static Logger log;
   
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        log = getLogger();
    }
}

 

Yes, that is correct.

 

I also found the thread that I was talking about:

Personally like all the other values in JavaPlugin, I would try to minimize the scope they are loose in. But in the case of the logger it is not quite as crucial.
