[ http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-42?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.is... ] Rob Ross commented on LBCORE-42: -------------------------------- I agree with the above. I just started using logback as a replacement for log4j, and this is the first big difference in behavior that I have found. Please implement this functionality in logback. Thanks!

add option to FileAppender to auto-create parent directories ------------------------------------------------------------

Key: LBCORE-42 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-42 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Components: Appender Affects Versions: unspecified Environment: Operating System: Linux Platform: PC Reporter: Bruno Navert Assignee: Logback dev list

FileAppender should be able to automatically create parent directories as needed when writing the log file. For instance, if configured with <File>/var/tmp/project_name/some_file.log</File>, and the new option set to true (suggest <CreateParentDirectories>true</CreateParentDirectories> maybe), then in FileAppender.setFile(), it should do new File( fileName ).getParentFile().mkdirs() workaround is to create the directory before initializing logback. Possible but far less than ideal, and rather complicated too
