Hi,
I have compiled log4cxx-0.9.7 in VC++ 6.0 (win 2000 server). I could compile
the libraries / dll's. Now to get started, I am trying to configure the
logger using configuration file. The contents are as follows:
log4j.rootLogger=debug, stdout, R
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File="commonexit.log"
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.debug=true
My c++ code written in trival.cpp is as follows:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <log4cxx/logger.h>
#include <log4cxx/basicconfigurator.h>
#include <log4cxx/propertyconfigurator.h>
#include <log4cxx/helpers/exception.h>
#include <log4cxx/ndc.h>
using namespace log4cxx;
using namespace log4cxx::helpers;
int main()
{
int result = EXIT_SUCCESS;
try
{
LoggerPtr logger = Logger::getLogger(_T("trivial"));
USES_CONVERSION;
String propertyFileName = A2W("C:\\CommonExit.cfg");
PropertyConfigurator::configure(propertyFileName);
logger->info(_T("APPS INITIALIZED"));
}
catch(Exception&)
{
result = EXIT_FAILURE;
}
return result;
}
///////////////////
I compile the exe using with follwing project settings:
C/C++ settings:
preprocessor definitions: WIN32,_DEBUG,_CONSOLE,_MBCS,UNICODE
Link settings:
Object/Library modules: log4cxx.lib
Now when i run the exe i get the following output on my screen:
Parsing for [root] with value=[debug, stdout, R].
Level token is [debug].
OptionConverter::toLevel: no class name specified, level=[debug]
Category root set to DEBUG
Parsing appender named "stdout".
Parsing layout options for "stdout".
Setting option name=[ConversionPattern], value=[%5p [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n]
End of parsing for "stdout".
Parsed "stdout" options.
Parsing appender named "R".
Parsing layout options for "R".
End of parsing for "R".
Setting option name=[File], value=["C:\Program Files\CA\eTrust
Admin\Logs\common
exit.log"]
FileAppender::activateOptions called : "commonexit.log", 1
Unable to open file: "commonexit.log"
Parsed "R" options.
Finished configuring.
INFO [2208] (:-1) - APPS INITIALIZED FROM EXE
/////////////////////
Ulitimately, my logfile is not created and I am not able to figure out the
reason why it's not able to open a file. I even tried to create the file and
then run the application, but still get the same error. When i debugged, i
found out that it fails in the following function:
/////////
ofs.open(T2A(fileName.c_str()), (append ? std::ios::app :
std::ios::trunc)|std::ios::out);
if(!ofs.is_open())
{
throw RuntimeException(); //goes here all the times
}
//////////
I will really appreciate if somebody can help me out with the above problem.
Best Wishes,
Picaso
