getting file path for a logger

["Marc Esher (4-2060)" <me...@argusgroupinc.com>]

Hi All,

  Is there a way to have log4J return to me a string containing the file
path for a specific logger?

 

Thanks.

It goes something like this.

Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(Some.class);
Enumeration e = logger.getAllAppenders();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    Appender a = (Appender)e.nextElement();
    if (a instanceof FileAppender) {
      FileAppender fa = (FileAppender)fa;
       //This
        String fileName = fa.getFile();
    }
}
}

What do you mean by a the file path for a specific logger? Loggers are not 
files. Loggers *may* contain one or more appenders which may be of type 
FileAppender. Could you be more specific?
