Can you provide more details? (VFS)LogFilePatternReceiver is the core
class app developers can use to parse regular text files and generat
logging events from them, as long as the log file formats are
consistent enough to be able to apply a regular expression to parse
them.
It may be possible to do all this without writing code if you just
need a utility to extract and combine the events...
Do you have two log files and want to extract events sharing a common
field to a third log file?
If so, is that common field known before the processing starts?
Maybe example log entries would help as well.

Hi Log4j developers
i used chainsaw to analyze logs using http://people.apache.org/~sdeboy/apache-chainsaw-2.1.0-SNAPSHOT-standalone.zip
. I was wondering if you could help me extend the non UI core
classes analyze the logs to make my own implmentation.
the reason i want to make my own is that our app has 2 stages, stage
1 can be handled by another node.
so we want a utility that can look for our specific common ID for
the 2 events
then make a extracted master log of both stages of that Txn and save
to seperate file. what we need is just a text file manipulator but
will be great if we can start from a class that can break up the log
record and tell me what is the timestamp, thread, caller id, message
etc
So what I want is a class name that I can extend or use in chainsaw.
