      • setLogRequestAndResponse

        @Deprecated
void setLogRequestAndResponse​(boolean theLogRequestAndResponse)
        Deprecated.
        Use LoggingInterceptor as a client interceptor registered to your client instead, as this provides much more fine-grained control over what is logged. This method will be removed at some point (deprecated in HAPI 1.6 - 2016-06-16)
        If set to true, the client will log all requests and all responses. This is probably not a good production setting since it will result in a lot of extra logging, but it can be useful for troubleshooting.
        Parameters:
        theLogRequestAndResponse - Should requests and responses be logged
