I started playing with Logback yesterday. I use scan="true" because I want an easy way to modify logging without redeploying my webapp. I noticed that each time I modify logback.xml a new ReconfigureOnChangeFilter is created. After 4 modifications and reloading of logback.xml the logback is reloaded 4 times because each new ReconfigureOnChangeFilter scan and reload the config file. Also, the logging work correctly. My message are logged one time (not 5 times). My only concern is that a new ReconfigureOnChangeFilter is created every time the config file is reloaded. What I'm I doing wrong ?
The output from debug="true". I made 4 modifications in the config file. 1 modif : changed level of com.lq from DEBUG to WARN 2 modif : changed scan time from 7 to 8 seconds 3 modif : changed scan time from 8 to 9 seconds 4 modif : changed scan time from 9 to 10 seconds http://old.nabble.com/file/p32099960/logback-debug-2.log logback-debug-2.log My logback.xml : <configuration scan="true" scanPeriod="30 seconds" debug="true"> <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender"> <encoder> <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern> </encoder> </appender> <root level="debug"> <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" /> </root> </configuration> I use a ServletContextListener to initialize Logback because I want a way to change the logging configuration without redeploying my webapp. If you have a better way, I'm open to suggestion : public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) { LoggerContext lc = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory(); try { JoranConfigurator configurator = new JoranConfigurator(); configurator.setContext(lc); // the context was probably already configured by default configuration rules lc.reset(); ServletContext servletContext = sce.getServletContext(); configurator.doConfigure(servletContext.getInitParameter(LOGBACK_CONFIG_FILE_PARAMETER)); } catch (JoranException je) { // StatusPrinter will handle this } } -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/A-new-ReconfigureOnChangeFilter-at-each-reload-of-the-config-file-tp32099960p32099960.html Sent from the Logback User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Logback-user mailing list Logback-user@qos.ch http://qos.ch/mailman/listinfo/logback-user
