 Everyone,
 
 Is there a way to use the LevelMatchFilter programmatically? Currently, it
 can be used with DOMConfigurator. 

AFAIK, filters can only be used with DOMConfigurator.

 Is there a way you can set more than one levels, for a Logger so that
 logEvent is called for any of these levels, it should be logged, others
 ignored. 

LevelRangeFilter?

 Since I am a newbie, pardon me, if I have asked something which is
 well-known, and please point me to the document that explains this.

Re: IsDebugEnabled

2003-02-11 Thread Daniel Serodio
Calling isDebugEnabled() will avoid the cost of calculating ``Entry
number:  + i +  is  + String.valueOf(entry[i])''. There's no other
way of avoiding this cost, because if you make this check inside logger,
the JVM will create this concatenated String, pass this to the logger,
which will then throw it away. But it will have been created already.

Also, you will tipically only check isDebugEnabled(), but not
isInfoEnabled(), etc. Use it only when you're concatenating many
strings, or calling (directly or indirectly) an expensive toString()
method.

Hope this helps,
Daniel Serodio

When the messages list is grouped by thread, messages posted as a reply

when they don't belong to the same thread it makes a mess out of the

 I'm thinking of using log4j with the jdbc appender, to log some structured 
information regarding the usage of my applications. I log with something like:
 
 myLogger.info( userName + applicationName + transactionName );
 
 I would like to be able to use a JDBC conversion pattern that would allow me to load 
the user name in a column, the application name into another column, and the
 transaction name into a third column. But, since the logger only accepts a single 
string as parameter, there is no way once we get into the layout specification to 
make a
 reference to individual elements. The layout only knows that my string corresponds 
to the %m specification.

No, the logger accepts a single Object, not String. Wrap username,
appname and transactionname in some king of object, and register an
ObjectRenderer for this custom object.

 What I would need is the possibility of calling the logger with a collection of 
strings; then, in the layout, I could reference each string with a %1m , %2m and %3m
 specification - something like
 ... INSERT INTO TEST_TABLE ( userName, transactionName, applicationName ) VALUES ( 
%1m , %3m, %2m )  .
 
 I know there is no such thing in the package right now, and I don't expect it any 
time soon, but do you think it would be feasible? And would it be useful, or am I the
 only one with that kind of requirements?

It's all fully documented in the Javadoc. All the Appenders have

Well, you can always report that there were 0 hits on a day when no log

  To answer your question, there is no NOP operation. However, you could

 |
 |which shows:
 |log4j.additivity.SECURITY=false 
 |
 |Additional additivity information is found at 
 |http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html#additivity
 |
 |where it states:
 |
 | Appender Additivity 
 | The output of a log statement of logger C will 
 |go to all the appenders in C and its ancestors. This is 
 |the meaning of the term appender additivity. 
 | However, if an ancestor of logger C, say P, has 
 |the additivity flag set to false, then C's output will be 
 |directed to all the appenders in C and it's ancestors upto 
 |and including P but not the appenders in any of the 
 |ancestors of P. 
 | Loggers have their additivity flag set to true 
 |by default. 
 |which  imply that the ancestor P, when his additivity is 
 |set to false, STILL logs messages, but doesn't pass them 
 |to the parent.  So, I guess if you set additivity on your 
 |logger C, C messages will be logged, but not passed up

Usually the log files are not deleted.
 
If you are running a platform on a production system which do not 
 should be restarted and for some unexpected reason the log file is 
 removed, then the logging won't work anymore. In my opinion, this is 
 wrong. It will require a restart to the platform in order to get the 
 logging system to work.
 
On a pontual situation, I may want to backup that log file for some 
 reason. In that case, I will move the file to other name.

If backup and rollover is what you need, you should truncate the file
instead of moving it, ie cp logfile.log logfile.bak; cat /dev/null 
logfile.log on a Unix system.

That still leaves the issue of the file disapearing.

Anyway, thanks to the development team by the great job. Maybe 
 there's a good reason for that...

 Hello,
 
 Have found in log4j docs that:
 SimpleLayout and PatternLayout classes ignore Java Throwable errors and
 exceptions. HTMLLayout and XMLLayout handle them.
 
 Is it possible somehow to make the Throwables and Exceptions seen in the
 Fatal debug level when working with PatternLayout?

I think what you need is: logger.error(Crash!, exception) instead of
logger.error(exception)
 
 
   thank you,

Re: change the configuration file 'delay' time during runtime

2002-12-19 Thread Daniel Serodio
AFAIK, you need to call
PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch(log4j.properties, 100) instead
of relying on default initialization

On Thu, 2002-12-19 at 05:07, Abramson, Rami wrote:
 Hello,
 
 How is it possible to change the configuration file 'delay' time during

 Knowing that the default properties file that the log4j looks for is
 log4j.properties, I have tried to write in it:
 
 log4j.PropertyConfigurator.delay=100
 
 but then, during runtime changing other properties in the file do not
 influence the debugging.

RE: Log4j Configuration with Servlet

2002-12-12 Thread Daniel Serodio
I suggest adding this to the FAQ.

 Howdy,
 While Mr. (?) Lenharcik's suggestion will work, I'd suggest doing it
 slightly differently: use a ServletContextListener and initialize log4j
 in the contextInitialized() method.  That will get called before any
 servlet's init() method.  And the contextDestroyed() method of that
 listener is a great place to shut down log4j gracefully
 (LogManager.shutdown()).  The container is free to unload and reload any
 servlet, including load-on-startup servlets, at any time, so init'ing
 log4j in a servlet is not always optimal.
 
 - WEB-INF/webx.ml create an entry to init the servlet while server
 start.
 One property of this entry is the path to your log4j config-file 
 
 If you're using a servlet, it's init-param, if using a context
 listener it's a context-param.
 
 (if your
 file is in /classes you can use reflection
 CLASSNAME.class.getRessource(/configfile.lcf)
 
 Technically speaking, that's not reflection ;)  But it'll work.  For
 people like me who don't like to mix config files and compiled code, you
 can use the
 ServletContext().getResource(/pathtoyourconfigfilefromyourcontextroot)
 call to do the same.

Re: mal-formed XML

Did you try putting ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? before the
doctype? Also, get rid of the Append param in the com.shazam category,
as it's giving you a warning.

PS: It's better to attach the config file instead of pasting it in the
message body, because we can't tell what is line 11, column 3.

RE: ConsoleAppender and System.{out,err}.println

2002-10-23 Thread Daniel Serodio
On Wed, 2002-10-23 at 11:57, Cakalic, James wrote:
 Every implementation of PrintStream (the class of System.out) that I have ever 
reviewed synchronized on itself (the object) around the actual I/O. So all the public 
print, println, and flush methods are synchronized. Whenever one of these methods is 
called, the output will be written uninterrupted by another call. 
 
 Any problem would be when multiple PrintStream calls are used to write the detail 
for a single event seeing as each call would be independent (synchronization-wise) of 
every other call. ConsoleAppender relies on its WriterAppender superclass 
implemetation of append which ultimately makes one write call with the result of the 
layout format and then, if the layout ignoresThrowable, gets a String[] representing 
the Throwable and writes each String with a separate write call followed by a 
separate write of the LINE_SEPARATOR. So, depending on your layout, there could be 
quite a variance of opportunity for a non-log4j writer to jump in.

Thank you, your explanation made things very clear to me.
 
 An Appender introduces another level of synchronization so that multiple Loggers 
using the same Appender cannot collide. So, if it is possible, the suggestion to use 
LoggingOutputStream to replace the PrintStream represented by System.out (see the 
javadoc) is probably a good way to minimize the collision between ConsoleAppender and 
System.out users. 

Actually, I'm currently using LoggingOutputStream and want to get rid
of it because of the possible infinite recursion when LogLog tries to
log stuff. It's already happened in my app, so for me it's not only a
possibility, but an actual problem.
 
 Of course, ultimately, you'll want to replace all the System.out calls :-)

Of course, that's my future goal. :)

 I bet that you first hit the problem and only then read the emails, 
 correct? Admittedly, the warning about the LogLog recursion is not very 
 visible.

I read the e-mails but, in a hurry, thought I'll fix it when I need
the fix. From what I gathered from those e-mails, the best solution
would be to use LogLog.setPrintStream(PrintStream), but when I tried it
I noticed this method was not implemented!

When you set a's additivity to false, it won't inherit root's

  the

   different JVM. This is causing rollover problems etc.
   
   I can eliminate the problem by using two different log4j
  config
   files and by listing different appender properties in those
  two
   but I want to avoid that and use a single config file for
  ease
   of maintenance. Please let me know if/how I can do that.

Re: Log4j SocketServer

2002-08-27 Thread Daniel Serodio

 Hi,
 
 I have the following question regarding the class SocketServer.java (used to
 allow TCP connection):
 
 In the function main, when a connection is accepted a thread is created at
 the following line:
   new Thread(new SocketNode(socket, h)).start();
 
 As the reference to this thread is not kept any where in the program then
 this thread will be in the list of items to be cleaned by the garbage
 collector.

Threads are only GC'ed when not running, i.e., when run() returns.


 Thus, when the socket node and the thread are both cleaned by GC then the
 TCP appender will have to reconnect again.
 
 My question is:
 Are the log4j TCP server and appender using one socket for several logging
 events (until the TCP appender is closed) or is the TCP server creating a
 socket node for every one or two logging events (depending on socket status
 (deleted or not)).?
 
 Thanks
 El-Yamine Kettal

Hi! How can I make logging requests with priority DEBUG and INFO go to
