RE: getting file path for a logger

[Marc Esher \(4-2060\)]

Thanks Matt. 

Before I try this out myself, which will be in the next couple of hours:
will this return the value of "File" as set in the properties, or will
it return the current file being logged to (i.e. myFile.txt.1)?

It goes something like this.

Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(Some.class);
Enumeration e = logger.getAllAppenders();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    Appender a = (Appender)e.nextElement();
    if (a instanceof FileAppender) {
      FileAppender fa = (FileAppender)fa;
       //This
        String fileName = fa.getFile();
    }
}
}
