Re: Trace clients actions
I know one of the logging packages has a feature that allows you to bind logging output to a particular user associated with a particular servlet session. I'd probably go that route. The syntax in the logger involved something along the lines of %u I think.

Re: Trace clients actions
I guess, you are speaking of the MDC (Mapped Diagnostic Context) feature in log4j. This is somehow a j.u.Map context that can be used in log statements. You are the one responsible for correction populating the context map. Regards, Jérôme.

Re: Trace clients actions
Right... that's been working well for us. I have a request listener
method in a POJO:
import org.apache.log4j.MDC;
public class EventListener implements ServletRequestListener // among
others
{
public void requestInitialized(ServletRequestEvent sre) {
HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest)
sre.getServletRequest();
HttpSession session = req.getSession();
if (session != null) {
// Get the userName stored in session at login.
String userName = (String) session.getAttribute(USERNAME_KEY);
MDC.put(user, userName);
}
}
}
Then my log4j configuration has a ConversionPattern:
... (%X{user}) ...
