Hi, I do not know if log4cxx supports this out-of-the-box but for your application to do it should be a simple task, I guess.
Upon exit OR start, the application checks if their exists a log file and renames it(with current timestamp, say), if it is. Regards, Anand. On 3/27/07, Alexander Baur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, I'm using log4cxx on a windows machine. Everything works fine up to now. But I've got a problem: Is there any possibility to create a new log file every time i start my program? So I don't want to base file rolling on the file size but on the start of my application. For example I start my program for the first time and this creates the log file "logfile.log". Now when I close the application and restart it, the old file should be renamed to "logfile_1.log" and the new one to "logfile.log". With the RollingFileAppender I can only roll over the old files when a file gets bigger than the MaximumFileSize and with the DailyRollingFileAppender it creates, depending on the configuration, a new log file every minute/hour/.. I hope anyone can help me. Regards Alex Baur
