Dear all : I know there are trainsient variables in LoggingEvent but I tried serializing and deserializing to file. Only first LoggingEvent is deserialized and after that I get
java.io.StreamCorruptedException at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject0(ObjectInputStream.java:1326) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(ObjectInputStream.java:339) at test2.main(test2.java:33) Has any one tried Serializing and Deserializing LoggingEvent. If so can u share experiences plz..

I am curious how that code was the cause of the problem, but the problem itself is solved Guy On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 3:06 PM, Simon Park <simon_park_m...@yahoo.co.uk> wrote: > Hi, > > Take a look at the > http://www.simonsite.org.uk/javadoc/org/apache/log4j/appender/TimeAndSizeRollingAppender.html. > Source is available in the JAR at > http://www.simonsite.org.uk/resources/lib/log4j-rolling-appender.jar.
