Specifying exclusive log file for one category
I have a root category and other other categories under it instantiated as with their class name strings for logging.
Now for just one of my classes i want the messages to go into a different log file (these messages should not appear in the main log where all other classes log their messages).
Is there any way to specify this in the Logger.properties file or some other way this can be achieved ?
Thanks & Regards.
Ravi

Re: Specifying exclusive log file for one category
Posted by Ravishankar Rajagopalan <rx...@netscape.net>.
I set the additivity false at the end of my Logger.properties file. But
Tomcat-uPortal's Logger.properties (which i understand executes after
mine) seems to still over ride this and i find messages in both the logs
after Tomcat starts up. Any other workaround that may work ?
Thanks

try setting the additivity of
log4j.category.com.x.y.a1 and
log4j.category.com.x.y.a2
to false. I think is something like:
log4j.category.com.x.y.a1.Additivity=false
log4j.category.com.x.y.a2.Additivity=false
This way the appenders are not inherited, so only the
appenders you specify are used.
Perhaps you would want to try:
log4j.category.com.x.Additivity=false
so you have complete control over the appenders of
your particular hierarchy.
Hope this help,

Re: Specifying exclusive log file for one category

Hi :
The objective is - messages from different modules (categories) need to
go into separate files exclusively. Actually i tried to set it up in
such a way :
log4j.category.com.x.y.a1=DEBUG, R
log4j.category.com.x.y.a2=DEBUG,AA
and set separate appenders for R and AA, which works perfectly fine.
But we are using Tomcat-uPortal which has its own Logger.properties file
(so in our system we have two of them) and it sets the
log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, R and this makes all the messages to flow into
this file as all other categories come under the Root. Is there any way
i can work-around this (either by changing the Logger.properties of
Tomcat-uPortal) or any other change ?
Thanks & Regards.

RE: Specifying exclusive log file for one category
Posted by kirusshna <ki...@cyberpros-us.com>.
Hi ravi,
Try this change in the properties and in the java file also.
log4j.logger.Log1=DEBUG,Log1
log4j.logger.Log2=DEBUG,Log2
log4j.logger=Log1
log4j.logger=Log2
log4j.appender.Log1=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.Log1.layout=org.apache.log4j.HTMLLayout
log4j.appender.Log1.File=F:/send/X1.html
log4j.appender.Log1.datePattern='.'yyyy-MM
log4j.appender.Log2=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.Log2.layout=org.apache.log4j.HTMLLayout
log4j.appender.Log2.File=F:/send/X2.html
log4j.appender.Log2.datePattern='.'yyyy-MM
in java file ,
public static Logger log1 = null;
public static Logger log2 = null
log1 = Logger.getLogger("Log1");
log2 = Logger.getLogger("Log2");
and so u can call log1.debug or log2.error ...
hope this will solve the problem.

I have a root category and other other categories under it instantiated as
with their class name strings for logging.
Now for just one of my classes i want the messages to go into a different
log file (these messages should not appear in the main log where all other
classes log their messages).
Is there any way to specify this in the Logger.properties file or some other
way this can be achieved ?
