Logback first looks for logback-test.xml. Would it be permissible for you to provide _that_ and then from within that do your own stuff, and then include the official logback.xml? If it can inspire, I am using the facility of logback looking for logback.xml in the classpath, and then it only consist of an include instruction to allow me to locate the actual configuration in a file relative to my current working directory.

My problem is I have to use a specific logback configuration and I cannot modify it, because the Client archteture do not allow this possibility to us. So, that “include” you suggested, unfortunatelly I also cannot use. Is there a possibility to use another logback configuration totally separated from the application logback configuration? Is there a possibility to have a logback.xml to the application and another logback_specific.xml to specific application points, to generate a specific business log? Thank you very much, Vitor De: logback-user-bounces@qos.ch [mailto:logback-user-bounces@qos.ch] Em nome de David Roussel Enviada em: sexta-feira, 27 de maio de 2011 16:49 Para: logback users list Assunto: Re: [logback-user] Doubt about multiple configurations In your main logback.XML you can include another like this: <configuration> <include file="src/main/java/chapters/configuration/includedConfig.xml"/> <root level="DEBUG"> <appender-ref ref="includedConsole" /> </root> </configuration> Then in your second file you can configure multiple appenders. Does that work? I'm not 100% sure I understand the question.

The first problem is, I have to use one logback configuration with no modifications (because we have to use a proprietary framework, it is a framework of our client), so I have to keep a main configuration. The second problem is, the business of my application needs more than 3 different logs, so I need at list one more Logback configuration where I can put more than one file appender. My question is: How can I have one more logback configuration that do not have any application dependencies. That can be read from a “Helper/Util” class without any help from the infrastruture (ex: Spring). Or, if anyone have another idea? Thanks a lot!
