Log Action
A log action is a simple action
that writes certain information to a log file. Create a
Log
Action Actions can be created from the action
properties of an element. Right click on any element, select
Properties from the popup menu, select the action
tab, then click the New button. From the Choose Action
Type dialog window, select log action. The following is a log
action from the Log Information sample.
Log Message Items
A log action contains a list of message items. These items are to
be written to a log file in the same order as the order defined in
the list. A log action automatically appends a new line character
at the end of the message items. Click the New button to create a
new log message item.
Each message item is defined by a dialog window that is similar to
the set variable dialog window. The only difference is that a log
message item does not require a name.
Example
The Log Information sample shows you how to save caller responses
to a log file.
The figure shown at the beginning of this section is a log action
for the Yes element. After a caller pressed one, the Yes
element is activated. Once the log action is executed, the
application writes a line containing the current time, followed by
the caller ID, then a string 'Yes'. The application log file looks
like the following:
1189207655125, 16508888888, YES
1189207735421, 16500000000, NO
1190415594375, 16501234567, YES
...
The first column is the timestamp of the called time. |
