Hi to all,
Same here, I have also fixed up CompositeRollingFileAppender so it does roll over by date (second, minutes, hours, days, months) by config file + over size (specified number of times) by config file + custom roll over functions (you can externally call roll over) I use this when I start the application (so I know how many times it was started + have different log files for each start (so I know where to search for my info)) + !!! it removes files older then x (minutes, hours, days, weeks) based on the config file (I use this for keeping 1 week my webapp logs, each day in it's file). I'm also thinking in future to place an optional flag to tell the rolling appended to roll over (like size roll over) on every property activate options. My main problem is also the fact that I did not receive answer from Kevin Steppe <k s t e p p e @ p a c b e l l . n e t>, so I would have been able to just give the code away. Problem number 2 I've made many changes (I would say many bug-fixes also) on the file and test it only for use in my projects (for which they work with no problem). Problem number 3 formatting; is not yet formatted with jalopy. If anyone interested in this version of CompositeRollingFileAppender see attached zip, and if have any opinion about it please let me know. I also have an example that works with log4j 1.2.8, java sun sdk 1.4.

I extended this class so that the Appender rolls by date AND by size, like the CompositeRollingFileAppender does, with the difference that it logs to a different file every day, without having to rename any files (that was the problem with threads logging to yesterday's dir because the Java method "renameTo()" fails in the RollingFileAppender or the CompositeRollingFileAppender. My question is: Are you interested in this Appender? and if so, do you know who the original author of DailyRollingFileAppenderExt was? I would like to give this appender out to the people searching for something like that in the mailing list, it's almost an FAQ, but I would like to ask the original author before. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
