[logback-user] technical question

15 Sep 2009

      Hello,

I have a problem with TimeBasedRollingPolicy and that is older files are not deleted when I set the MaxHistory property in the xml,so any suggestions.

Here is my XML file:

<configuration>
<appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<FileNamePattern>RollTimeTest.%d.log</FileNamePattern>
<!-- keep #days worth of history -->
<MaxHistory>2</MaxHistory>
</rollingPolicy>
<layout class="ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout">
<Pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS}[%thread] %-5level %logger{35} - %msg%n</Pattern>
</layout>
 </appender>
 <root level="debug">
 <appender-ref ref="FILE" />
 </root>
</configuration>

Regards,
Ayman Hammoudeh
