I am having lots of logging statements to debug for example.

Log.v(TAG, \"Message here\");
Log.w(TAG, \" WARNING HERE\");

Answer 1

In my apps I have a class which wraps the Log class which has a static boolean var called "state". Throughout my code I check the value of the "state" variable using a static method before actually writing to the Log. I then have a static method to set the "state" variable which ensures the value is common across all instances created by the app. This means I can enable or disable all logging for the App in one call - even when the App is running. Useful for support calls... It does mean that you have to stick to your guns when debugging and not regress to using the standard Log class though...

It's also useful (convenient) that Java interprets a boolean var as false if it hasn't been assigned a value, which means it can be left as false until you need to turn on logging :-)
