Subject: Conversion pattern reverse engine

Hi

I wonder if anyone can help me with this.

I have a log file and the conversion pattern. [%H %d] %c{1} %5p: %m (%F{1}:%L)%n is it possible to extract the log file and get certain field , for example I would like to get "%d" from the log file.

If it does, does anyone can give me a bit of example?

Thanks,

In the log4j receivers companion (http://logging.apache.org/log4j/companions/receivers ), there is org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver that processes a log file and generates corresponding logging events. Chainsaw uses this "receiver" to read an arbitrary log file. There are similar receivers for XML files, etc. It is written in Java, but it should be able to operate on log4net generated files. I'd not the one to ask for specific questions about Chainsaw or the receiver, but if you have questions, you could ask on log4j-user.
