Logging based on class name in JBoss 7.0.0
Hi,
I am using Java 1.7 along with JBoss 7.0.0 version with standalone.xml having logging version <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:1.0"> . I have a requirement to separate logs based on class name i.e for a particular class the log file should be separate.
Java Class ::
package com.task;
public class MyService {
/**
* Logger.
*/
private static final Logger LOGGER = Logger.getLogger(MyService.class);
Then all the logs should be redirected to a file registered against this class name in JBoss `standalone.xml` file , for instance i have done like
standalone.xml
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:1.0">
<console-handler name="CONSOLE" autoflush="true">
<level name="INFO"/>
<formatter>
<pattern-formatter pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/>
</formatter>
</console-handler>
<periodic-rotating-file-handler name="FILE" autoflush="true">
<level name="INFO"/>
<formatter>
<pattern-formatter pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/>
</formatter>
<file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="server.log"/>
<suffix value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/>
</periodic-rotating-file-handler>
<periodic-rotating-file-handler name="MY_LOG" autoflush="true">
<level name="DEBUG"/>
<formatter>
<pattern-formatter pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/>
</formatter>
<file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="my_log.log"/>
<suffix value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/>
</periodic-rotating-file-handler>
<logger category="com.arjuna">
<level name="WARN"/>
</logger>
<logger category="org.apache.tomcat.util.modeler">
<level name="WARN"/>
</logger>
<logger category="sun.rmi">
<level name="WARN"/>
</logger>
<logger category="com.task.MyService">
<level name="DEBUG"/>
<handlers>
<handler name="MY_LOG"/>
</handlers>
</logger>
<root-logger>
<level name="INFO"/>
<handlers>
<handler name="CONSOLE"/>
<handler name="FILE"/>
</handlers>
</root-logger>
</subsystem>
The log file with name **my_log.log** is getting created but the logs are not redirected to that file they are still written over the **server.log** file by default.
How can i log the statements from this **MyService.class** to write into **my_log.log** file only ?
Also if i insert the <handler name="MY_LOG"/> into Root-Logger and use "use-parent-handler = false" then on restart of the application the standalone.xml gets overwritten and the "use-parent-handler = false" is removed automatically. How can i stop this overwriting behavior please suggest.
