Yair, first of all, thanks for your answer.
Ho about creating a Logger in ThreadLocal with a unique name that is
based
on the thread name?
Apologies for this basic question, but how can I do this?
Just passing a new name to getLogger()?
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/Logger.html
More importantly, how can I dispose of the logger? Otherwise the
number of
open loggers grows with the number of threads run.
Thanks,
Kaspar

Dear list,
I am looking for a way to create a log file per thread (actually, per
Quartz job that gets run).
I've googled quite a bit and found a few approaches, in particular
KeyFileAppender [1]. All I have seen seem to rely on the MDC and
KeyFileAppender seems to have a resource leak [2].
I am wondering whether there is a simply way to programmatically
create, at
the beginning of my thread, a logger with a given name and closing
it at the
end of the thread. Has anybody accomplished something like this?
public void run()
{
String id = ...; // thread name or whatever
Logger logger = ...; // Create a logger with a basename and the id
try
{
// ...
}
finally
{
logger.close(); // Something like this is needed to make sure
// old logs do not keep hanging around
}
}
Many thanks,
Kaspar
