[jira] [Comment Edited] (LOG4J2-821) CompositeTriggeringPolicy behavior

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-821?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14144547#comment-14144547 ]

Thanks [~ralph.goers@dslextreme.com], can you please tell me then what's is wrong in the following appender ? the expected behavior is that it should archive log every minute OR when file size reaches 20 GB (and of course when system starts and find log), but when I tested it only archives log after reaching 20 GB after passing more than 6 minutes!

{code}
<RollingFile name="MainRollingFile" fileName="logs/main.log" filePattern="logs/$${date:yyyy/MM/dd/mm}/main-%d{yyyy-MM-dd-mm}-%i.log.gz"
        append="true" immediateFlush="false">
      <PatternLayout>
        <Pattern>%d{ISO8601}: %-5p [%-8t] [%C{1}.%M():%L] - %m%n</Pattern>
      </PatternLayout>
      <Policies>
        <CompositeTriggeringiPolicy>
            <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="20 GB" />
            <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="1" modulate="true" />
            <OnStartupTriggeringPolicy />
        </CompositeTriggeringiPolicy>
      </Policies>
       <DefaultRolloverStrategy max="10"/>
    </RollingFile>
{code}

>          Components: Appenders
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
>            Reporter: Hassan Kalaldeh
>
> referring to "Composite Triggering Policy" section under http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders.html
> "Composite Triggering Policy
> The CompositeTriggeringPolicy combines multiple triggering policies and returns true if any of the configured policies return true. The CompositeTriggeringPolicy is configured simply by wrapping other policies in a Policies element."
> Shouldn't be the opposite, CompositeTriggeringPolicy  returns true only of all children triggering policies are met ?
