Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-573: ------------------------------------ Is May 1, 2014 12:45 more specific than May 1? It seems obvious to me that in the first the most specific time unit is minutes while in the second it is a day. This enhancement introduces another complexity. Currently when the time-based pattern is present the increment is reset to 0 when the rollover occurs due to time. It only increments on a size based rollover. So without the file pattern every rollover would try to write to file 0. So you are asking for two enhancements in this request. > TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy does not accept %i increment FilePattern > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: LOG4J2-573 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-573 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Appenders > Affects Versions: 2.0-rc1 > Reporter: Steven McCoy > Priority: Minor > > The following configuration should be valid but raises an exception because > the filePattern contains no date however it does contain an increment pattern. > {code:xml} > <RollingRandomAccessFile name="File" fileName="${filename}" > filePattern="logs/icap.log-%i"> > <PatternLayout pattern="%m%n"/> > <Policies> > <OnStartupTriggeringPolicy /> > <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="12" modulate="true"/> > <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="500 MB"/> > </Policies> > <DefaultRolloverStrategy fileIndex="min" max="3"/> > </RollingRandomAccessFile> > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
