Known Subclasses:: LevelHandler

A handler class which buffers logging records in memory. Whenever each record is added to the buffer, a check is made to see if the buffer should be flushed. If it should, then flush() is expected to do what's needed.

Method Summary
	`__init__(self, capacity)` Initialize the handler with the buffer size.
	`emit(self, record)` Emit a record.
	`flush(self)` Override to implement custom flushing behaviour.
	`shouldFlush(self, record)` Should the handler flush its buffer?
Inherited from Handler
	`acquire(self)` Acquire the I/O thread lock.
	`close(self)` Tidy up any resources used by the handler.
	`createLock(self)` Acquire a thread lock for serializing access to the underlying I/O.
	`format(self, record)` Format the specified record.
	`handle(self, record)` Conditionally emit the specified logging record.
	`handleError(self, record)` Handle errors which occur during an emit() call.
	`release(self)` Release the I/O thread lock.
	`setFormatter(self, fmt)` Set the formatter for this handler.
	`setLevel(self, level)` Set the logging level of this handler.
Inherited from Filterer
	`addFilter(self, filter)` Add the specified filter to this handler.
	`filter(self, record)` Determine if a record is loggable by consulting all the filters.
	`removeFilter(self, filter)` Remove the specified filter from this handler.
