Re: AW: DailyRollingFileAppender with filesize option
Hi Carsten, It is my understanding, and I may be wrong here, that Ceki has completely rewritten the whole rolling appender framework to allow much more flexibility in the composition of different rules for rolling. This unfortunately not in the released version at this time, but the 1.3 release is not that far away. We appreciate your contribution, perhaps you could attach the files to a bug item (if you haven't done so already), so that your efforts don't get lost if my understanding is not correct. cheers, Paul Smith On Mon, 2003-12-01 at 20:57, Bansemir, Carsten wrote: > Hi, some time ago i wrote the following to the log4j-dev mailing list: > > > Hi, > I had several problems with the DailyRollingFileAppender (see user mailing list), so > I downloaded the DailyRollingAppenderExt.jar but I can't find the source of this > file again (so I also can't find out the author of this Class). > > I extended this class so that the Appender rolls by date AND by size, like the > CompositeRollingFileAppender does, with the difference that it logs to a different > file every day, without having to rename any files (that was the problem with > threads logging to yesterday's dir because the Java method "renameTo()" fails in the > RollingFileAppender or the CompositeRollingFileAppender. > > My question is: Are you interested in this Appender? and if so, do you know who the > original author of DailyRollingFileAppenderExt was? > I would like to give this appender out to the people searching for something like > that in the mailing list, it's almost an FAQ, but I would like to ask the original > author before. > > > So if someone finds out the the author of the original DailyRollingFileAppenderExt > please tell me, that I can give out the modified one to the people who want it. > > > -UrsprÃngliche Nachricht- > Von: Manju Joseph [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Gesendet: Sonntag, 30.

AW: DailyRollingFileAppender with filesize option
Hi, some time ago i wrote the following to the log4j-dev mailing list: Hi, I had several problems with the DailyRollingFileAppender (see user mailing list), so I downloaded the DailyRollingAppenderExt.jar but I can't find the source of this file again (so I also can't find out the author of this Class). I extended this class so that the Appender rolls by date AND by size, like the CompositeRollingFileAppender does, with the difference that it logs to a different file every day, without having to rename any files (that was the problem with threads logging to yesterday's dir because the Java method "renameTo()" fails in the RollingFileAppender or the CompositeRollingFileAppender. My question is: Are you interested in this Appender? and if so, do you know who the original author of DailyRollingFileAppenderExt was? I would like to give this appender out to the people searching for something like that in the mailing list, it's almost an FAQ, but I would like to ask the original author before. So if someone finds out the the author of the original DailyRollingFileAppenderExt please tell me, that I can give out the modified one to the people who want it. -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Manju Joseph [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Sonntag, 30.

AW: DailyRollingFileAppender with filesize option
Since this is almost a FAQ but an (real good) Answer is nowhere to find in the list-archive (yes, I searched it more than 1 times), i want to specify the question so that it's really an unanswered question: First some things to say: - there is an Implementation of a combined DailyRollingFileAppender and RollingFileAppender, called CompositeRollingAppender, and with this Appender you can choose the Rolling Behavior (1=by size, 2=by date, and 3=both I think) - BUT there is a Problem with the DailyRollingFileAppender running under windows, because the java method renameTo() doesn't work fine with Threads logging to a file, when the rollover happens (after midnight some Threads are still logging to yesterdays logfile (see mailing list). - this Problem is fixed by an Appender called DailyRollingFileAppenderExt (see mailing list) - the CompositeRollingAppender has the same Problem than the DailyRollingFileAppender, so I can't use it. - I also know that there gonna be big changes in Rolling Strategys in the next Ant release, which fixes this Problem. - but for now there is no (i found none) working Implementation of a Combined Appender wich rolls by size and by date. Now, here comes the question: So, I want to know if there's a combination of DailyRollingFileAppenderExt and RollingFileAppender, or some complete new designed Appender with the same functionality ? -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 25.
