Here's an example configuration you could use with Chainsaw V2 that will receive events generated by a SocketAppender, and if a received event has a level of WARN or greater, a sound is played.
Notice how the SoundAppender uses a chain of filters - an ExpressionFilter that accepts a match, followed by a DenyAllFilter (only events matching the expression generate a sound). <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration > <log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/"; debug="true"> <plugin name="SocketReceiver" class="org.apache.log4j.net.SocketReceiver"> <param name="Port" value="4445"/> </plugin> <appender name="sound" class="org.apache.log4j.varia.SoundAppender"> <param name="audioURL" value="file:///c:/windows/media/chimes.wav"/> <filter class="org.apache.log4j.filter.ExpressionFilter"> <param name="Expression" value="LEVEL >= WARN"/> <param name="AcceptOnMatch" value="true"/> <param name="ConvertInFixToPostFix" value="true"/> </filter> <filter class="org.apache.log4j.filter.DenyAllFilter"/> </appender> <root> <level value ="debug"/> <appender-ref ref="sound"/> </root> </log4j:configuration> -----Original Message----- From: news on behalf of Rakesh Patel Sent: Wed 9/7/2005 6:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Re: Chainsaw Features I'd Like To See Scott Deboy <sdeboy <at> comotivsystems.com> writes: > > Added SoundAppender to CVS HEAD - should be available in next 1.3 alpha release. > > See http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/logging- log4j/src/java/org/apache/log4j/varia/SoundAppender.java?rev=1.1&view=markup > > You'll need to add a filter to this appender specifying which events match (LevelMatchFilter or > ExpressionFilter), followed by a DenyAllFilter. > > Scott > forgive me scott, but i was not able to understand how i would be able to use the soundappender. if it's not too much trouble, can you explain it once more with some specific step by step details? thanks rakesh --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
