level based logging into seperate files
Dear all, I have a simple question and I have no solution. Did a lot of google and tried too many things. I am not going where I want to. My only requirement is : I need to be able to use a logger object and append different levels of logs into different files (ofcourse the logs should have the classname, time and the error)(like Warn messages go to warn_log error messages go to error_log) . I am completely stuck with this simple thing... may be I just have too much on my mind. I would appreciate if someone could help me with this.

Re: log4j Manual, where?
Wayne interessierts, so I did not overlook something. The simple fact is that there is no good official manual and no good unofficial free manual. It seems that log4j can afford that, since not many people jump to other logging frameworks. Wayne Cannon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hans, I agree with you to a limited extent.

Re: level based logging into seperate files
Just create one appender per level and use a LevelFilter to get only the correct level. You may find that doing something slightly different is more useful. Have each appender have a certain level and above so that DebugAppender has all messages, InfoAppender has everything but DEBUG, etc. I find that when I look through the DEBUG logs I want to see all higher logs also.

Re: log4j Manual, where?
You can't complain too much because it's open source and the contributors don't get paid for it! If you want a more comprehensive manual, pitch in and write it yourself, or buy the commercial manual! I've always thought that the short introduction to log4j at http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html was very well written and more than adequate! It gets you up to speed quickly, and for those things you can't figure out there is the javadoc, the code, and the mailing list! I think log4j is better documented than the average open source product. It's pretty well documented! By the way, the short introduction is a little bit out of date now. For example, it doesn't mention that log4j now FIRST looks for an xml file instead of a properties file. That one tripped me up recently. - Original Message From: Hans Schwaebli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Log4J Users List Sent: Thursday, July 26, 2007 9:57:29 AM Subject: Re: log4j Manual, where?

Thanks for the heads-up. That would eventually catch me by surprise, too. --Wayne Arthur Blake wrote: ... By the way, the short introduction is a little bit out of date now.

You can file bugs against the docs and since we are hopefully soon to release 1.2.15, the sooner the better. To build the forthcoming docs, install Maven 2.0.7 then svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/branches/v1_2- branch log4j12 cd log4j12 mvn site The site is generated in target/site To modify the manual, edit src/site/xdoc/manual.xml and rebuild. When you have the change that you want, do svn diff > bugname.patch and attach it to a bug filed on the docs. If anyone else wants to help on docs, please pitch in. The faq (src/ site/fml/faq.xml) might be a good place to add value. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: initializing log4j per thread
You may have to write your own appender for this. It would be simliar to people who want one log per user so you might find good suggestions in the archive if you search for something like "file per user".
