Bug 76978 [ErrorHandling] WorkbenchPlugin logs to System.err
Reported: 2004-10-25 17:01:09 | Status: verified fixed

methods such as below, log to System err. These should be updated to use ILog. /** * Logs the given message to the platform log. * * If you have an exception in hand, call log(String, Throwable) instead. * * If you have a status object in hand call log(String, IStatus) instead. * * This convenience method is for internal use by the Workbench only and * must not be called outside the Workbench. * * @param message * A high level UI message describing when the problem happened. */ public static void log(String message) { getDefault().getLog().log( StatusUtil.newStatus(IStatus.ERROR, message, null)); System.err.println(message); //1FTTJKV: ITPCORE:ALL - log(status) does not allow plugin information to be recorded }
