Hi Ceki, thanks for your reply, it was very helpful. I did as you wrote, but it seems that the OnConsoleStatusListener is still "registered", messages go still to stdout via this listener, is there a way to "unregister" this listener in the logback.xml config file? I'm new to logback and I am very excited (? begeistert) of all the capabilities and flexibility it offers, it is great! thanks again, regards, christian On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 3:47 PM, Ceki Gülcü <ceki@qos.ch> wrote:
Hello Christian,
You can register a status listener which will be notified anytime a new status message is created. See [1]. Logback ships with a listener called OnConsoleStatusListener which prints status messages on the console. It is installed as
<configuration> <statusListener class="ch.qos.logback.core.status.OnConsoleStatusListener" /> ... the rest of the configuration file </configuration>
Its installation is highly recommended. You could fairly easily develop your own listener which writes to a file.
HTH,
