I wouldn't. It probably won't help your score and could possibly hurt it. Besides, a real logging implementation would involve using Log4J or something similar - well beyond the scope of this project.

Hi Samual, I had logging on the server but not to a file. Most of the server GUI was a large text area that logged server actions, exceptions, clients connecting, etc. I considered putting a "Save log to file" on the File menu, but decided against it. Hope this helps, Michael Morris

Hi guys, I have implemented logging of client activities on the server. All client activities like connecting, enquiry, add, modify, lock & unlock etc. are logged into a large text area. I have moved a step ahead by providing three different tabbed panes one to show all activities, another to show lock & unlock activities and another to show all exceptions thrown. I have implemented save server log and clear server log functionality. Note: It helped me a lot in debuggin my client. Hope this helps.
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
