Ok, let me explain more... I have a set of elements, a queue of them...I have a thread pool of processors. A processor takes an element from the queue and logs some information about them. So what I need to do is to log the information about element XYZ to a file called XYZ.log and for element ABC to the file ABC.log and on and on...
>From the log4j.xml for the app, there is an appender called AllElements, lets say. In addition to all element specific log files, I need to log to this file also...Now what I need to do is to "clone". If it is a rollingFileAppender the element specific log appender needs to be the same, the pattern format should be the same, the only difference is appender file name... So for each element, I need a brand new logger with appenders exactly the same as the one defined in log4j.xml file, the only difference is the filename for the appender, there is only one. Does this help at all clarify what I need to do? Thanks Reza On Tue, Sep 9, 2008 at 8:00 AM, Bender Heri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Loggers do not have file names attached.
