Use fine/finer for info that users shouldn't see but useful for developers. If the log messages in this class are useful for users, use info level- otherwise OK to use the fine level.

My opinion on this is that users should only see logs when a new file is created or some error occurred while trying to load the file. When the file is loaded correctly from the path, I feel that the logs here aren't actually useful for the users but more for developers since it's expected to be loaded correctly for the user which was why I opt to use fine for logs that say "Using xxx file: ".

The argument to use info logs might be if the user wants to edit/modify the related files manually so it might be useful to show file path location with info but based on the ug, so there isn't really a need to display the file locations.

That is a fair point. But the UG mentions the data file only.
Also, the log is not for errors/warnings only -- if we wanted that, we should have set the default log level to WARN or ERROR. At INFO level, it should show important activities that are happening.

There looks like there is an extra space here before the colon

Current code:
logger.info("Using data file : " + storage.getAddressBookFilePath());

Proposed Change:
logger.info("Using data file: " + storage.getAddressBookFilePath());

Hi sorry for the late update, the formatting is like to follow the other similar logging statements found in MainApp where a space is included before the colon.

Perhaps this comment can be rephrased so it doesn't describe a point in time, as markers like "currently" make code comments harder to maintain.

Instead, it could describe the desired usage, for e.g. "Lower level log messages should be used sparingly to minimise noise in the code."

Also there's a space before the inline semicolon, not sure if that's intended.

Suggested change

// Currently, lower level log messages are used sparingly, to minimize noise in the code.

logger.fine("Command word: " + commandWord + " ; Arguments: " + arguments);

// Lower level log messages should be used sparingly to minimize noise in the code.

logger.fine("Command word: " + commandWord + "; Arguments: " + arguments);

Instead, it could describe the desired usage, for e.g. "Lower level log messages should be used sparingly to minimise noise in the code."

Good point @hansstanley

Suppose the user input blah caused a ParseException. Compare the following two log messages:

ParseException: blah
This user input cased a ParseException: blah

I think the latter is more self-explanatory. The former can even mislead the reader to think blah is the ParseException.
What do you think?
