On Android, what can logcat log? What cannot?

Not quite clear what logcat can and cann't. Suppose my phone is connected to my local computer. Do:

c:> adb shell logcat > /data/tmp/logs/log.txt

log.txt file will be created on the android devie. After some time, phone crashes. How can I got the log.txt back from the device? Is there a way to directly output all the events (even kernel message such as dmesg does) on the device to my computer, instead of generating a log file on the device first, then pull it to the computer?

You Should use android-logging-log4j.jar

You can store all the log in .txt or .xml For More details go through

https://code.google.com/p/android-logging-log4j/

You need to give path where you want to save your log. So can navigate to that path and can get the log file

Hope this help.
