Provide an appender similar to log4js AsyncAppender --------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-177 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-177 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: New Feature Components: appender Affects Versions: unspecified Reporter: Torsten Juergeleit Assignee: Logback dev list We're using log4j successfully in financial B2B / B2C web applications for years. Now we would like to adopt Logback but therefore we need support for an asynchronous appender decorator like log4js AsyncAppender. Attached you can find my take on this kind of appender cobbled together from ideas and code from various places: * http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/xref/org/apache/log4j/AsyncAppender.html * http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-20 * http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-176 * http://www.simonsite.org.uk/ -- 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-137) PatternLayout does not really respect ISO8601 for date time

PatternLayout does not really respect ISO8601 for date time ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-137 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-137 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Improvement Components: Layout Affects Versions: 0.9.19 Environment: irrelevant here Reporter: Brice Dutheil Assignee: Logback dev list Using the default "%d" "%date" or %d{ISO8601} does not output a correct ISO 8601 formatted date and time representation. Indeed there is a space between the date and the time, as the specification says having a space separator means there two fields : a 'date field' and a 'time field'. The specification consider this as acceptable for human reading though. However when processing logs it might cause some trouble to effectively parse the fields, especially when correlating logs from different applications. For now we have workarounds, but it seems reasonable to have a correct ISO8601 formatting. The correct ISO8601 representation for a 'date and time field' is to have the T indicator, for example '2007-03-01T13:00:00Z'. The workaround for now is to write ourself the correct ISO8601 pattern. Oh and by the way the timezone formatting options in the SimpleDateFormat are incomplete. The JodaTime format class org.joda.time.format.ISODateTimeFormat worth a look on this matter. Anyway date and time related classes in the JDK are not known for being the best at what they do. This problem is also found in log4j. An excerpt of the specification is documented on wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Combined_date_and_time_representations -- 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

Asynchronous File appender -------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-176 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-176 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: New Feature Components: appender Reporter: Konstantin Alexandrov Assignee: Logback dev list Attachments: AsynchRollingFileAppender.java I implement asynch rolling file appender for my application, the reason is to decrease logging time in time critical part of application. This logger save up to 2 time logging time and decrease total IO concurrency. If you found this appender usable, then please include to distribution.

XML/HTML tags haven't get escaped in HTMLLayout ----------------------------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-180 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-180 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: Bug Components: layout Affects Versions: 0.9.18 Environment: Linux (Ubuntu), JavaSE 1.6 Reporter: Xu Hui Hui Assignee: Logback dev list View it here for a better looking: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2069135/how-to-make-xml-get-escaped-in-h… I'm using logback (with slf4j) to do the logging, and I've got many XML content to be logged in both text files and HTML files (with HTMLLayout). However, logback just inserts the raw XML in the <TD> tags for the HTMLLayout, without any escaping or <pre> processing. Here is the snippet of my logback.xml: <appender name="ALL" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender"> <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy"> <FileNamePattern>${DIR_ALL}/%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.html</FileNamePattern> <TimeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP"> <MaxFileSize>500KB</MaxFileSize> </TimeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy> </rollingPolicy> <layout class="ch.qos.logback.classic.html.HTMLLayout"> <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS}%logger{1}%msg</pattern> <cssBuilder class="ch.qos.logback.classic.html.UrlCssBuilder"> <url>${CSS_HREF}</url> </cssBuilder> <title>Logs (ALL)</title> </layout> And the following is what I got: <td class="Message">(DemoCall) parsing response failed. Details: <call><action>getmessage</action></call> </td> What I'm expecting: <td class="Message">(DemoCall) parsing response failed. Details: <call><action>getmessage</action></call> </td> Or better wrap the above message with a <pre> tag. Do I need to extend the HTMLLayout to archive that? Or is it my job to do a StringEscapeUtils.escapeHTML(msg) for each log statement (I'm not going to do that, since there also is a file appender for which the escaping is not needed).

Invalid multiple configuration file warning ------------------------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-159 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-159 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: Bug Components: Other Affects Versions: 0.917 Environment: Resin webapp Reporter: Hontvári József Assignee: Logback dev list I receive strange warnings in the status info. It says that logback.xml, which in this case comes from a file and not from the classpath, occurs multiple times. The file is specifies and logged using absolute path, so even relative paths cannot cause the warning. Logback configuration file is specified by the system property "logback.configurationFile". It is done by the Resin application server, somehow it is able to supply different properties for different web applications. I don't think this is important, however. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but at least the message doesn't help. 20:36:34,236 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext[default] - Found resource [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] at [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] 20:36:34,236 |-WARN in ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext[default] - Resource [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] occurs multiple times on the classpath. 20:36:34,236 |-WARN in ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext[default] - Resource [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] occurs at [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] 20:36:34,236 |-WARN in ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext[default] - Resource [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] occurs at [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] 20:36:34,236 |-WARN in ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext[default] - Resource [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] occurs at [file:/C:/Progra~1/mireka/conf/logback.xml] -- 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

RollingFileAppender/TimeBasedRollingPolicy failing to ZIP files in different directory -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-169 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-169 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Components: Rolling Affects Versions: 0.9.24 Reporter: Tomasz Nurkiewicz Assignee: Logback dev list When using ZIP feature to compress old log files, Logback does not allow to put ZIP files in different directory like in this example: <file>logs\server.log</file> <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy"> <fileNamePattern>logs\arch\server.%d{yyyy-MM-dd_HHmm}.log.zip</fileNamePattern> </rollingPolicy> Running the attached test maven project (it takes 1 minute to run) will create server.log3560979839057.tmp (or similar) temporary file instead of ZIP file in /arch subdirectory (preferably this directory should be created if not exists). If fileNamePattern in rollingPolicy is changed to: "logs\server.%d{yyyy-MM-dd_HHmm}.log.zip" everything works as expected. The root of this issue is to be able to automatically ZIP files AND archive them in different directory. It would be great to be able to use date placeholders in folder names, for instance: <fileNamePattern>logs\arch-%d{yyyy-MM}\server.%d{yyyy-MM-dd_HHmm}.log.zip</fileNamePattern> so that Logback would automatically create folders for each month with ZIPped files. -- 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

Add option to include caller data in JMS Appender or to disable caller data in DB Appender ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: LBCLASSIC-157 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-157 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: New Feature Components: appender Affects Versions: 0.917 Reporter: Ging Ming Chan Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Minor We are using the JMSQueueAppender remotely with a centralised server that uses the DBAppender to log to the database. However, since the JMSQueueAppender does not send the caller data, and the DBAppender always expect it, the operation never succeeded. There are two options to fix this, either add the includeCallerData option in the JMS Appender or to exclude caller data in the DB Appender. -- 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
