LOGBack Classic Bundle does not declare ch.qos.logback.core.rolling as Import-Package ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-108 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-108 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: Bug Components: Other Affects Versions: 0.9.15 Reporter: Christian Brensing Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Minor The LOGBack Classic Bundle has no Import-Package for ch.qos.logback.core.rolling (and rolling.helper), resulting in a ClassNotFoundException when using e.g. the RollingFileAppender from the Core-Bundle. The ClassNotFoundException will be raised because the Bundle which initializes the LoggerContext (Classic) can not load the Appender from the Core-Bundle. The Bnd-Tool by Peter Kriens and the Maven-Felix-Plugin only detects package dependencies that are imported in java classes. Runtime dependencies like Appenders must be explicitly configured in the bnd-file or pom. This issue is identically to the one I reported for the SpringSource-Bundle-Repository, see https://issuetracker.springsource.com/browse/BRITS-165. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

[JIRA] Created: (LBCORE-91) Add new TriggeringPolicy class to cause one rollover at the start of each run

Add new TriggeringPolicy class to cause one rollover at the start of each run ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-91 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-91 Project: logback-core Issue Type: New Feature Components: Appender Affects Versions: 0.9.15 Environment: - Reporter: Rick Beton Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Minor A new TriggeringPolicy will cause the logfile to rollover once at startup when used with FixedWindowRollingPolicy. This is useful during development so that the logfiles of recent runs are still available. Here is a candidate implementation. Note that * <append>true</append> is required - otherwise the previous file is overwritten before rollover happens, so rollover results in a useless list of empty files. * the documentation would need to warn users of the effect of running multiple applications concurrently (i.e. concurrent operating system processes) with the same logfiles. This applies even without the suggested feature. package ch.qos.logback.core.rolling; import java.io.File; import ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TriggeringPolicyBase; /** * SimpleStartupTriggeringPolicy triggers a rollover once at startup only. This * is useful for preserving older logfiles during development. * * @author Rick Beton */ public final class SimpleStartupTriggeringPolicy<E> extends TriggeringPolicyBase<E> { private boolean fired = false; public SimpleStartupTriggeringPolicy () { // does nothing } public boolean isTriggeringEvent( final File activeFile, final E event ) { final boolean result = !fired && (activeFile.length() > 0); fired = true; if (result) { addInfo( "Triggering rollover for " + activeFile ); } return result; } } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

[JIRA] Created: (LBCORE-61) TimeBasedRollingPolicy can not be used with any other triggering policies

TimeBasedRollingPolicy can not be used with any other triggering policies ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-61 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-61 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Szel Zoltan Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Critical If someone would like to have a time based rolling policy with a size based triggering policy, than the user will get a NullPointerException,: at ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.helper.Compress.GZCompress(Compress.java:130) at ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy.rollover(TimeBasedRollingPolicy.java:142) at ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender.rollover(RollingFileAppender.java:91) at ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender.subAppend(RollingFileAppender.java:116) at ch.qos.logback.core.WriterAppender.append(WriterAppender.java:124) at ch.qos.logback.core.AppenderBase.doAppend(AppenderBase.java:81) at ch.qos.logback.core.spi.AppenderAttachableImpl.appendLoopOnAppenders(AppenderAttachableImpl.java:51) at ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger.appendLoopOnAppenders(Logger.java:282) at ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger.callAppenders(Logger.java:266) at ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger.buildLoggingEventAndAppend(Logger.java:487) at ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger.filterAndLog(Logger.java:479) The cause of this issue is the isTriggeringEvent method in the TimeBasedRollingPolicy which has a side effect, namely it prepares the file name of the file which is about to rotate. If someone uses a triggering policy other than the same TimeBasedRollingPolicy, than the isTriggeringEvent method will not be called, hence the elapsedPeriodFileName will be null, hence a null pointer exception will be thrown in the start of the compression or while renaming. Please modify the isTriggeringEvent to not have this side effect + the rollover logic to capture the time information from the current event.

Allow rolling based on time or file size ---------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-60 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-60 Project: logback-core Issue Type: New Feature Components: Appender Affects Versions: 0.9.9 Reporter: Szel Zoltan Assignee: Logback dev list The rolling grouping file appender allows to roll over on a specific interval(TimeBasedRollingPolicy) or when the log file has reached a specific file size. But unfortunately Logback does not support both to use together. For example if i want to roll over every day but i also want to roll the file when it is greater than 100MB. Please consider adding this feature to Logback and feel free to contact me if further clarification is required.

AppenderBase doAppend is synchronized causing significant performance problems when calling appenders. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: LBCORE-58 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-58 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Components: Appender Affects Versions: 0.9.10 Environment: All Reporter: Ralph Goers Assignee: Logback dev list Slow appenders cause Logback to be a significant bottleneck in the system. AppenderBase doAppend is synchronized to allow Appenders to be threadsafe. This is an extremely poor way to accomplish that. Many Appenders are slow since they are dealing with I/O of some kind but may be thread safe. Where they are not they should deal with the issue at the smallest granularity possible. AppenderBase must be changed to not be synchronized and any Appenders that are not thread safe should be modified appropriately. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
