## Interface Logger

-     public interface Logger

  A `Logger` is a component used to log messages. This interface defines the standard way for UIMA components to produce log output.

  In the UIMA SDK, this interface is implemented using the Java 1.4 logger as a back end. If you want to configure the logger, for example to specify the location of the log file and the logging level, you should use the standard Java 1.4 logger properties or the java.util.logging APIs. See the section "Specifying the Logging Configuration" in the Annotator and Analysis Engine Developer's Guide chapter of the UIMA documentation for more information.

    - #### setLevel

          void setLevel(Level level)

      Sets the level of messages that will be logged by this logger. Note that if you call `UIMAFramework.getLogger().setLevel(level)`, this will only change the logging level for messages produced by the UIMA framework. It will NOT change the logging level for messages produced by annotators. To change the logging level for an annotator, use `UIMAFramework.getLogger(YourAnnotatorClass.class).setLevel(level)`.

      If you need more flexibility it configuring the logger, consider using the standard Java logger properties file or the java.util.logging APIs.

      Parameters:
        `level` - message level

    - #### setResourceManager

          void setResourceManager(ResourceManager resourceManager)

      Sets the ResourceManager to use for message localization. This method is intended for use by the framework, not by user code.
      Parameters:
        `resourceManager` - A resource manager instance whose extension ClassLoader (if any) will be used for message localization by this logger.
