你我学习网
首先说点题外话，对于想学android framework源码的同学，其实可以在github中fork一份，具体地址：platform_frameworks_base
这里面基本都是android framework层的源码了。而且最近发现了一个比较不错的github插件：OctoTree，它 是一个浏览器插件，它可以让你在Github 看代码时，左边栏会出现一个树状结构，就像我们在IDE 一样。当我们看一个项目的结构，或者想看具体的某个文件，这样就会很方便。
怎么样这样查看源代码的话是不是很方面？
好了说一下我们今天需要介绍的Log对象，它位于android framework层utils包下，是一个final class类：查看其具体定义：
public final class Log {
/**
* Priority constant for the println method; use Log.v.
*/
public static final int VERBOSE = 2;
/**
* Priority constant for the println method; use Log.d.
*/
public static final int DEBUG = 3;
/**

*/
public static final int INFO = 4;
/**
* Priority constant for the println method; use Log.w.
*/
public static final int WARN = 5;
/**
* Priority constant for the println method; use Log.e.
*/
public static final int ERROR = 6;
/**
* Priority constant for the println method.
*/
public static final int ASSERT = 7;
private Log() {
}
/**

* @param tag Used to identify the source of a log message. It usually identifies
* the class or activity where the log call occurs.

public static int v(String tag, String msg) {
return println(LOG_ID_MAIN, VERBOSE, tag, msg);
}

public static int v(String tag, String msg, Throwable tr) {

}

}可以看到其实final 类，所以我们不能通过继承Log类的方式实现自身的日志工具类，一般的我们可以通过定义Log成员变量的方式，封装Log工具方法；
在Log类中我们定义了六种日志级别，分别是：VERBOSE、DEBUG、INFO、WARN、ERROR、ASSERT等六种级别，但是我们平时使用的只有前五种，即VERBOSE,DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERROR。
通过查看源代码我们发现Log类中所有的静态日志方法Log.v()，Log.d()，Log.i()，Log.w()，Log.e()等方法都是底层都是调用了println方法，然后在github的源码中查看，其实其内部调用的是println_native方法，也就是通过JNI调用底层的c++输出日志；
我们暂时只是分析到这里，至于底层的c++日志输出的具体实现不作分析，总结一下：
Log.java是一个final类，所以我们不可以继承Log类来实现自己的日志框架，但是可以通过关联（保存Log成员变量）的方式实现自己的Log工具类；
Log.java中定义了六种日志级别，但是我们通常只是使用其中的五种日志级别，分别对应着VERBOSE、DEBUG、INFO、WARN、ERROR，在具体的使用场景下具体分析；
有些同学对android自带的日志框架不太满意，主要是无法定位日志位置，这里可以查看我写的一篇实现自定义日志框架的文章：github项目解析（五）-->android日志框架
