Hi, I'm working in aproject where I need to log same information in different log files. I have 2 different Appenders, but I need to use only one custom Layout to avoid computing the same information twice Is there a way to do so? 2 Appenders but only 1 executing layout? Also, I'm trying to use a Pattern with a custom Layout, but either I get the pattern executed or the Layout, but not both. How could I get both to work? This is an example of the configuration of my logback.xml file <conversionRule conversionWord="OnePattern" converterClass="OnePattern" /> <appender name="OneAppender" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender"> <File>...</File> <encoder class="ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder"> <pattern>%-6OnePattern %nopex%n</pattern> <layout class="CustomLayout"> </layout> </encoder> </appender> Thanks in advance Gustavo Arriazu
