Limit the line size of log message

Hi,

What I like is to restrict the number of characters logged in one line. When
a programs logs a line of 1000 bytes, what I like is that these 1000 bytes
are logged in lines of maximum 250 characters. This means, when I take the
sample, that a message of 1000 bytes is split over 4 lines. 

Do I need to create an Patternlayout executing this, adding CR/LF
characters, or is there already a parameter in the standard PatternLayout (I
don't see anything in the dcoumentation)?

Does somebody has already created such kind of PatternLayout?

Thx
Walter

AsyncAppender Settings in config file?

Posted by Vivek Kapadekar <vk...@bitfone.com>.
Hi 
I wrote my own appender and have wrapped it in a AsyncAppender and got
it working. But i do the addition of this appender to the logger, and
setting of properties  inside code.

Can I do this in log4j.properties ?

Thanks

    Howdy,
    There's not already a PatternLayout option for this.  You'd have to
    extend/wrap/customize PatternLayout to do this for you.
    
    May I ask why you want this?
