Ari Rabkin commented on CHUKWA-454:
-----------------------------------

This is something I was meaning to do, as well.  If you have time, can you also 
put together one or more junit tests, to make sure this feature doesn't rot?  
They don't have to be super-sophisticated, I just want to make sure nobody 
breaks this inadvertently in development.

> I would like to be able to point the DirTailingAdaptor at a directory but 
> only have it tail files matching to a certain pattern. 
> So I've made a change that allows the adaptor to recieve an optional filter 
> parameter and use the org.apache.commons.io.filefilter.WildcardFileFilter 
> class to filter out files.
> This allows you to for example point the adaptor at a tomcat log directory 
> and not have it tail catalina.out logs etc.
