Joe Merten updated LOG4J2-486: ------------------------------ Attachment: MyRolloverStrategy.java log4j2.xml > RollingFile Appender - add custom info at the start of each logfile > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-486 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-486 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Question > Components: Appenders > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta9 > Environment: Java 1.7, Linux > Reporter: Joe Merten > Attachments: MyRolloverStrategy.java, log4j2.xml > > > I post this question here because of a hint of Remko Popma. > See also: > * > http://apache-logging.6191.n7.nabble.com/log4j2-getting-started-amp-rolling-files-tt8406.html#a42402 > * > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20819376/log4j2-rollingfile-appender-add-custom-info-at-the-start-of-each-logfile > I want to add some custom info at the top of each logfile, like the version > string of my application, the application uptime and the system uptime. And > even writing some »bye, bye / eof« to the bottom of the just closed logfile > would also be fine. > Because there is no appropriate hook or callback to get notified when the > RollingFileAppander is creating / has created a new file, so that I can put > my things at first into these new logfile, I tried to extend > DefaultRolloverStrategy. But currently, I stuck at some points. > Seems that I have to deal with {{@Plugin}} and {{@PluginFactory}}. My try > with the attached log4j2.xml and MyRolloverStrategy.java compiles without > errors and warnings. But when I start the application, I get this error > message: > {{2014-01-05 23:22:05,876 ERROR RollingFile contains an invalid element or > attribute "MyRolloverStrategy"}} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
