Yes 1. Use LogFilePatternReceiver - see Chainsaw's Welcome page for an example receiver configuration. Each LogFilePatternReceiver config processes a single file, so configure one specifying the URL to mylog.log 2. No - the receiver can't recognize when the file has rolled - but assuming the current file name is always the same, you can 'restart' the receiver once it has rolled and Chainsaw will load the events in the new file (mylog.log will continue to be processed) 3. Create a second LogFilePatternReceiver specifying the URL to mylog.log.1

How to create a "receiver" for such an thing? What is the appropriate receiver to be created in chainsaw to handle a rollingFileAppender? 2. Will Chainsaw be able to appropriately switch the to latest log file after a rollover has occured - i.e., when a rollover occurs and you now have 2 files mylog.log and mylog.log.1 - where mylog.log is hte current log file and the mylog.log.1 is the rolled over log file. 3. In Chainsaw, how can i quickly switch to a previously rolled over file, i.e,, say the currently log file is mylog.log, and rolled over file is mylog.log.1. How can i view mylog.log.1?
