suggestions were to either use markers or a separate "well known" logger. As I mentioned in the previous message, I was about to write a sample which used markers just to better understand how they work. The first road block I ran into is that log4net does not support markers, as far as

I was about to starting writing a sample to see how markers work and to see if they could be used for logging business events instead of using a custom level. While I might have mentioned log4net in passing, we're trying to capture these business events using existing logging frameworks

Custom Markers

2015-09-10 Thread Priya Ahuja
Hi, I am currently using log4j2.0 and I have implemented Marker (SYSLOG_MARKER) for deciding the destination of a log to be localfile log or syslog. But with this approach all the existing logs in the system (~5000) will need manual decision and addition of marker to every single log. Is there a

If I understand you correctly, you have an existing application that logs events in about 5000 different places, so you don’t want to have to modify that code. Without modifying the code the only way to filter the events is on somehow find something wiithin the message itself. If you can add

Gee whiz, that wasn’t very clear. Let’s try again. Without modifying the code the only way I can think of to filter the events is to find something within the message itself to filter on. If you can add the marker only to the events you want routed then the configuration you have below will

Using markers or ThreadContext to select logger via slf4j

2014-12-19 Thread James Hutton
I have some libraries that leverage slf4j for logging (can't change it) however my application leverages log4j2 and the slf4j-log4j2 bridge. I was wondering if there is a way I can at the beginning of the request flow set a value in the ThreadContext or something so that the slf4j loggers will

What do you mean by “request flow”? You can certainly do this in your code. Ralph On Dec 19, 2014, at 6:10 AM, James Hutton james.a.hut...@gmail.com wrote: I have some libraries that leverage slf4j for logging (can't change it) however my application leverages log4j2 and the slf4j-log4j2

So for example a cxf interceptor that is using slf4j internally, I'd like to add an interceptor before it to add items to the ThreadContext that would cause getLogger(Class) to return a different logger based upon the value set in the ThreadContext. On Fri, Dec 19, 2014 at 9:55 AM, Ralph Goers

Re: Unable to create detached markers via log4j-slf4j-impl 2.1.

Hi Ralph, I worked around the issue. Basically, I had a setup where I had basic markers A, B and a marker C which existed in 2 versions: 1) C - with reference to A and 2) C with reference to B. What I did instead was create 2 separate markers. C_A with references to C and A and C_B
