Hi Jakartites and Jakartettes,
I would like Myclass to be able to log to the same file as MyServlet.Log();
My Servlet instantiates a class called Myclass. I want to pass to Myclass the
Filelogger that is defined in the <context /> section of $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml
(eg. w/in MyServlet
Me = new Myclass();
Me.setFileLogger( unknown beasty from MyServlet should go here );
How do I get a reference to the same FileLogger that MyServlet.Log("logstring",
verbositylevel) uses?
Here is my current <context /> section:
<Context path="" docBase="PVCalc" swallowOutput="true">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="PVCalc."
suffix=".log" timestamp="true"
directory="logs" verbosity="3"/>
</Context>
The best I can figure out so far is to modify the server.xml to read:
<Context path="" docBase="PVCalc" swallowOutput="false">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="PVCalc."
suffix=".log" timestamp="true"
directory="logs" verbosity="3"/>
<Parameter name="MyLoggerprefix" value="PVCalc." />
<Parameter name="MyLoggersuffix" value=".log" />
</Context>
And then declare a FileLogger w/in MyServlet that (I hope) will actually match the one
that MyServlet.Log() uses w/ the above context params. This is a little sloppy I
think since the context params have to match the <Logger /> param. It would be easier
if I could just get the reference from MyServlet w/out declaring
"org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger MyLogger = new
org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger(); "
Also I'm not sure this will actually work. Doesn't the logfile that
MyServlet.Log("logstring") uses change w/ time? I think I've read that the file name
changes w/ each new day?? If so I'm not even sure declaring a FileLogger that matches
w/ the standard log will even work.
So does anyone know how to get a reference to the standard logger that MyServlet.Log()
uses so that I can pass it to other classes?
Thanks in advance,
-John Donaldson
