Hi all,
sorry that my response took so much time, but you all know that
deadlines!
Generally this appender is useful for file based communication
with legacy applications, that you can't modify to something
more clever (like JMS, socket or database).
There are applications, which periodically search some spool
directory, take any file, process it and finally delete it.
I decided to use log4j for storing incoming sms, because it is
very flexible tool. First of all I stored them into file using
FileAppender. But then my boss decided, that each sms must be
stored in separate file (so it can be grabbed by other processes).
My decision was to create new appender, which will place each
logging statement into separate file. And this is TempFileAppender.
The best of log4j is, that if he decides to send it over email,
JMS or store it as record in database, I can say OK and just modify
configuration file!
