public class AccessLogHandler
extends Object
implements HttpHandler

Access log handler. This handler will generate access log messages based on the provided format string, and pass these messages into the provided AccessLogReceiver.

This handler can log any attribute that is provides via the ExchangeAttribute mechanism. A general guide to the most common attribute is provided before, however this mechanism is extensible.

This factory produces token handlers for the following patterns

• %a - Remote IP address
• %A - Local IP address
• %b - Bytes sent, excluding HTTP headers, or '-' if no bytes were sent
• %B - Bytes sent, excluding HTTP headers
• %h - Remote host name
• %H - Request protocol
• %l - Remote logical username from identd (always returns '-')
• %m - Request method
• %p - Local port
• %q - Query string (excluding the '?' character)
• %r - First line of the request
• %s - HTTP status code of the response
• %t - Date and time, in Common Log Format format
• %u - Remote user that was authenticated
• %U - Requested URL path
• %v - Local server name
• %D - Time taken to process the request, in millis
• %T - Time taken to process the request, in seconds
• %I - current Request thread name (can compare later with stacktraces)

In addition, the caller can specify one of the following aliases for commonly utilized patterns:

• common - %h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b
• combined - %h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b "%{i,Referer}" "%{i,User-Agent}"

There is also support to write information from the cookie, incoming header, or the session
It is modeled after the apache syntax:

• %{i,xxx} for incoming headers
• %{o,xxx} for outgoing response headers
• %{c,xxx} for a specific cookie
• %{r,xxx} xxx is an attribute in the ServletRequest
• %{s,xxx} xxx is an attribute in the HttpSession
