Do it like the following. Then it will be easy to send the audit logs
to another location.
final static Logger _logger = Logger.getLogger(ReferenceDataDaoImpl.class);
final static Logger _auditor =
Logger.getLogger("audit."ReferenceDataDaoImpl.class.getName());

Hi,
i have a requirement to audit events to a database table. I thought of
using the log4j JdbcAppender to do this but the issue i have is there's
auditing and there's debugging.
For example,
logger.debug("Value of variable is now:{}",aVariable); // this is not
needed for auditing
logger.debug("Successful logon for username:{}",userName); // this
should end up in the audit table
My current configuration of log4j is to declare a class-specific logger
in each class that needs logging:
final static Logger _logger = Logger.getLogger(ReferenceDataDaoImpl.class);
I could use this logger and utilise thresholds and have audit events
triggered by calling logger.error() but that does not seem a very clean
approach.
Another idea is to declare an additional logger to be used for auditing:
final static Logger _logger = Logger.getLogger(ReferenceDataDaoImpl.class);
final static Logger _auditor = Logger.getLogger(ReferenceDataDaoImpl.class);
and have that logger use JdbcAppender. Or maybe one global logger for
auditing?
What do you guys think?
Cheers
Rakesh
