Hi! First, let me say that I'm very, very new to log4j and all, so the following question(s) might sound "stupid" to you - in that case please forgive me.
The challange that I'm facing right now it this: I'll have to make some changes to an application I know virtually nothing about - someone at my company thought this would be a "good idea"... That appliation is using log4j and a ConfigurableDailyRollingFileAppender which is derived from DailyRollingFileAppender. Now, this works in general... BUT... now they want me to change the logging behavior in a way that the logging system generates log files even when there are NO logging events (when the system wasn't doing anything). These files will of course be empty (in a shell I would do a "touch" and that's it) and - in other words - completely useless. That's what I told them also but they still want to have it. Is there any way to get log4j to generate empty log files even without any logging events? By the way, these log files have to be generated every two minutes - even if they are empty... Any ideas? I mean I could also set up a cron job that generates empty files every two minutes but I doubt that I'll get this in sync with log4j. Thank you very much in advance for answering my "stupid" question.
