This is the class of the java.util.logging package. This class is used for constructing the log file and write some log records to standard error publishing in the console. This type of error is published through the System.err which are written to log records i.e. handled by the ConsoleHandler class.

log.addHandler(Handler err)

public class WriteRecordsToStdError{
  public static void main(String[] args) {
  WriteRecordsToStdError r = new WriteRecordsToStdError();
  }
  public WriteRecordsToStdError(){
  ConsoleHandler err = new ConsoleHandler();
  Logger log = Logger.getLogger("");
  LogRecord rec1 = new LogRecord(Level.WARNING,"Do something here!");
  LogRecord rec2 = new LogRecord(Level.INFO,"Do something here!");
  LogRecord rec3 = new LogRecord(Level.SEVERE,"Do something here!");
