/**
 * A handler that writes log messages to a socket connection.
 * 
 * This handler reads the following properties from the log manager to
 * initialize itself:
 * 

 * java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level specifies the logging level,
 * defaults to {@code Level.ALL} if this property is not found or has an invalid
 * value.
 * 
java.util.logging.SocketHandler.filter specifies the name of the filter
 * class to be associated with this handler, defaults to {@code null} if this
 * property is not found or has an invalid value.
 * 
java.util.logging.SocketHandler.formatter specifies the name of the
 * formatter class to be associated with this handler, defaults to
 * {@code java.util.logging.XMLFormatter} if this property is not found or has
 * an invalid value.
 * 
java.util.logging.SocketHandler.encoding specifies the encoding this
 * handler will use to encode log messages, defaults to {@code null} if this
 * property is not found or has an invalid value.
 * 
java.util.logging.SocketHandler.host specifies the name of the host that
 * this handler should connect to. There's no default value for this property.
 * 
java.util.logging.SocketHandler.encoding specifies the port number that
 * this handler should connect to. There's no default value for this property.
 * 
 * 
 * This handler buffers the outgoing messages, but flushes each time a log
 * record has been published.
 * 
 * This class is not thread-safe.
