How to share configuration between logging-profiles
I have set up per-deployment application logging in WildFly 8.2.0 following the documentation. I have several applications deployed to the same WildFly instance and I just want to split out the logs for each application to a separate log file. However, it seems I have to specify the entire log configuration for every application, so it winds up being VERY verbose. Additionally, it requires a fair amount of repetition (e.g. having to specify the pattern in multiple places). Really I just want to override the filename of the log for each app. Is there a way to define a single logging-profile and then use a property from a deployment to set the filename?
Is there any way to share the configuration between log profiles or between a log profile and the main logger? Also, is there any problem with having both the main logger and logging profiles all writing to the console?
