I've not done it before, myself. I'd probably just use CreateObject and instantiate log4j and then start with the log4j docs. I believe the class you'd be most likely to use is org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
It also just occurred to me that you could use LogBox. It is part of the ColdBox framework but is also a standalone application that you could easily integrate. If you go that route, you've got a native CF solution and it also supports a huge number of logging options, like logging to email, to db, to file, to twitter, based on pattern matching, based on severity, etc. http://wiki.coldbox.org/wiki/LogBox.cfm Download and api docs are available about 2/3rds of the way down this page: http://www.coldbox.org/download Cheers, Judah On Fri, Sep 14, 2012 at 8:35 AM, morchella <[email protected]> wrote: > > are there any articles you could recomend. > my solution works but that sounds pretty slick. > i am googling "log4j ColdFusion" > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:352619 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
