How to make each log entry start on a new line?

[Ong CherYee]

am doing java logging to file using the logger class. In order to write logs to the file, a file handler was created using the 'append' mode.

However, when the
log entries are written to the log file, they are all entered on a single line.

How do I make each new log entry start on a new line?

   
boolean append = true;
FileHandler filehandler = new FileHandler(errorFile,append);
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("Logging");
logger.addHandler(filehandler);
 

logger.log(Level.INFO,"Unable to zip file:");

Try to append the following at the end of line:

"\n"

or

"\r\n"

Better yet, use System.getProperty("line.separator"). That will use the platform dependant line separator - \n for Unix, \r\n for Windows, etc.
