I've written a new class that extends o.a.c.logger.LoggerBase (using
spread - www.spread.org) and can be used as a <Logger> in server.xml;
AFAICT it works fine and does what I wanted it to do. However it seems
that there can only be one <Logger> section per container which means
I can't have (for testing purposes at least) something like this:
<Host ...>
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
directory="/var/log/tomcat" prefix="localhost_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
<Logger className="com.zapatec.catalina.SpreadLogger"
spreadName="localhost-six"
spreadGroup="tcexcep"
timestamp="true"/>
</Host>
which writes both the logfile to disk and sends a copy of the log
messages via spread without having to have both in the same class. Is
there a reason why one can't have multiple Logger sesions per
container?
Thanks,
Adi
