http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36384 Summary: Configuring triggering/rolling policies should be supported through properties Product: Log4j Version: 1.3alpha Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Configurator AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] While attempting to try the new RollingFileAppender I ran into problems where I could not set the rollingPolicy/triggeringPolicy from a properties file. I wasted quite a bit of time trying permutations and searching the web. Later I found this link: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/logging-log4j-user/200309.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] I believe that the following corrections should be made: 1) Properties should be fully supported. Many people do not want to load and run an XML parser just to read small 50 line config files. 2) Documentation should be clear on what is and is not supported. 3) It would help to have a tool/option/trace that would express the properties and probably the XML attributes that are supported for particular component. I turned on log4j.debug and got the less than helpful: Failed to set property [triggeringPolicy] to value "org.apache.log4j.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy". and later Please set a TriggeringPolicy for the RollingFileAppender named 'foo' -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
