static logger and instances with names

[Maciej Gawinecki <mg...@gmail.com>]

Hi!

I'm developing distributed application with of 5 agents, where 2 agents
are instances of class X and 3 agents - of class Y. Each agent has
unique name. I would like, that loggers contained reported also the
names of agents, but there, in fact, loggers are static and thus
associated with classes, not instances.

Has anyone of you meet similar approach ?

Best,
Maciej

Hello Maciej,

first I think this should go to the users list, dev is for log4j development itself.

Static Loggers (independent from the library or logging wrapper) are a problem, have a look at:
http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/Logging/StaticLog

You could have something like this:

public class Y {

private Logger log;

public Y(final String instancename) {
 this.log = Logger.getLogger(instancename);
}
}

Regards
Boris
