## Detailed Description

Send an e-mail when a specific logging event occurs, typically on errors or fatal errors.

The number of logging events delivered in this e-mail depend on the value of BufferSize option. The `SMTPAppender` keeps only the last `BufferSize` logging events in its cyclic buffer. This keeps memory requirements at a reasonable level while still delivering useful application context.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SMTPAppender | ( |  | ) |

SMTPAppender | ( | log4cxx::helpers::Pool & | p | ) |

The default constructor will instantiate the appender with a spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator that will trigger on events with level ERROR or higher.

SMTPAppender | ( | spi::TriggeringEventEvaluatorPtr | evaluator | ) |

Use `evaluator` passed as parameter as the spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator for this net::SMTPAppender.

~SMTPAppender | ( |  | ) |

## Member Function Documentation

virtual void activateOptions | ( | log4cxx::helpers::Pool & | p | ) |
| virtual

Activate the specified options, such as the smtp host, the recipient, from, etc.

Reimplemented from AppenderSkeleton.

virtual void append | ( | const spi::LoggingEventPtr & | event,
|  | log4cxx::helpers::Pool & | p
| ) |  |
| virtual

Perform SMTPAppender specific appending actions, mainly adding the event to a cyclic buffer and checking if the event triggers an e-mail to be sent.

Implements AppenderSkeleton.

virtual void close | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

Release any resources allocated within the appender such as file handles, network connections, etc.

It is a programming error to append to a closed appender.

Implements Appender.

LogString getBcc | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the bcc option.

int getBufferSize | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns value of the BufferSize option.

LogString getCc | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the cc option.

log4cxx::spi::TriggeringEventEvaluatorPtr getEvaluator | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the current triggering evaluator.

Returns
  triggering evaluator.

LogString getEvaluatorClass | ( |  | ) |

Returns value of the EvaluatorClass option.

LogString getFrom | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the From option.

bool getLocationInfo | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the LocationInfo option.

LogString getSMTPHost | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the SMTPHost option.

LogString getSMTPPassword | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the SMTPPassword option.

int getSMTPPort | ( |  | ) | const

Returns value of the SMTPHost option.

LogString getSMTPUsername | ( |  | ) | const

virtual bool requiresLayout | ( |  | ) | const
| virtual

The `SMTPAppender` requires a layout.

Implements Appender.

void sendBuffer | ( | log4cxx::helpers::Pool & | p | ) |

Send the contents of the cyclic buffer as an e-mail message.

void setBcc | ( | const LogString & | to | ) |

The Bcc option takes a string value which should be a comma separated list of e-mail address of the bcc'd recipients.

void setBufferSize | ( | int | bufferSize | ) |

The BufferSize option takes a positive integer representing the maximum number of logging events to collect in a cyclic buffer.

When the `BufferSize` is reached, oldest events are deleted as new events are added to the buffer. By default the size of the cyclic buffer is 512 events.

void setCc | ( | const LogString & | to | ) |

The Cc option takes a string value which should be a comma separated list of e-mail address of the cc'd recipients.

void setEvaluator | ( | log4cxx::spi::TriggeringEventEvaluatorPtr & | trigger | ) |

Sets the triggering evaluator.

Parameters

  trigger | triggering evaluator.

void setEvaluatorClass | ( | const LogString & | value | ) |

The EvaluatorClass option takes a string value representing the name of the class implementing the spi::TriggeringEventEvaluator interface.

A corresponding object will be instantiated and assigned as the triggering event evaluator for the SMTPAppender.

void setFrom | ( | const LogString & | from | ) |

The From option takes a string value which should be a e-mail address of the sender.

void setLocationInfo | ( | bool | locationInfo | ) |

The LocationInfo option is provided for compatibility with log4j and has no effect in log4cxx.

virtual void setOption | ( | const LogString & | option,
|  | const LogString & | value
| ) |  |
| virtual

Set options.

Reimplemented from AppenderSkeleton.

void setSMTPHost | ( | const LogString & | smtpHost | ) |

The SMTPPassword option takes a string value which should be a the password for the SMTP server.

void setSMTPPort | ( | int | port | ) |

The SMTPPort option takes a string value which should be a the port of the SMTP server that will send the e-mail message.

void setSMTPUsername | ( | const LogString & | newVal | ) |

The SMTPUsername option takes a string value which should be a the user name for the SMTP server.

void setSubject | ( | const LogString & | subject | ) |

The Subject option takes a string value which should be a the subject of the e-mail message.

void setTo | ( | const LogString & | to | ) |
