Hi, how can I get the parent logger of a given logger in logback? What I want is to retrieve a list of all effective appenders on a given logger, I suppose therefore I need to call iteratorForAppenders() on the logger itself as well as on all parents, right? log4j had logger.getParent() but I cannot find something similar in logback.
thanks in advance, best regards, christian! P.S. what I really want is to port this from log4j to logback, it gets a list of all logfiles attached to a given logger: org.apache.log4j.Logger testlogger = org.apache.log4j.Logger.getLogger(log.getName()); ArrayList<String> recvdMsg = new ArrayList<String>(); while (testlogger != null && testlogger instanceof org.apache.log4j.Logger) { Enumeration<Appender> loggers = testlogger.getAllAppenders(); while (loggers.hasMoreElements()) { Appender x = loggers.nextElement(); if (x instanceof FileAppender) { String filename = ((FileAppender) x).getFile(); if (filename != null) { File logfile = new File(filename); try { recvdMsg.add(logfile.getCanonicalPath()); } catch (IOException e) { //so we don't add the path, thats enough handling } } } } testlogger = (org.apache.log4j.Logger) testlogger.getParent(); } _______________________________________________ Logback-user mailing list Logback-user@qos.ch http://mailman.qos.ch/mailman/listinfo/logback-user
