Hi all, I'm currently using Logback (SLF4J) with a TimeBasedRollingPolicy defined in logback.xml. Everything works fine, however, I'd like to retrieve the filenames of the current logging session since the application started. The user can obviously change the log filenames and policies in logback.xml, so I don't want them hardcoded in the source. My goal is to retrieve these filenames straight within Java in order to do some more processing with them. Is there any possibility in logback/slf4j to retrieve those names? I currently aquire the logger via: Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Test.class); but obviously, this Logger object in particular doesn't provide such functionality. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Clemens
Would a change notifier be told of the new filename? I'm not sure, but it's worth a check. On 21 Mar 2011, at 13:56, Clemens Siebler <clemens.siebler@googlemail.com> wrote:

Hello Clemens, Lance's suggestion is almost certaint on target. Do check your classpath to see if there are multiple instances of logback-classic lying around. -- Ceki On 29.03.2011 14:13, Clemens Siebler wrote:

Thanks Ceki, that could be the issue. I currently have a bunch of jars in my classpath, that all have to do with logging: commons-logging-api.jar commons-logging.jar log4j.jar logback-classic-0.9.21.jar logback-core-0.9.21.jar slf4j-api-1.6.1.jar I use Jetty+Spring Framework and the latter one requires Log4j and the commons-logging jars.

Thanks for the notice, however it didn't fix the problem either. After going through everything again, I came up with this as the minimal configuration required to keep everything running: slf4j logback jcl-over-slf4j log4j (can't use log4j-over-slf4j, since the springframework still uses the Appender class, which isn't defined in the bridge) Now the strange thing: it actually does work when I execute the code for retrieving the log's name straight after entering main(). Executing the code somewhere later (this is a fairly complex project), results in the mentioned ClassCastException. Any ideas where this could come from?

Thanks Ceki, that could be the issue. I currently have a bunch of jars in my classpath, that all have to do with logging:
commons-logging-api.jar commons-logging.jar log4j.jar logback-classic-0.9.21.jar logback-core-0.9.21.jar slf4j-api-1.6.1.jar
I use Jetty+Spring Framework and the latter one requires Log4j and the commons-logging jars. The part of the application that I wrote, only uses Logback+Slf4j. Any ideas how to get away with this?

Hello Clemens,
Lance's suggestion is almost certaint on target. Do check your classpath to see if there are multiple instances of logback-classic lying around. -- Ceki

Thanks for the hint Lance! I feel like this could be the issue. However, I haven't managed to actually find a solution to it. I tried starting my application with -verbose:class, but I can only see one entry of: [Loaded ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext from file:/yyy/logback-classic-0.9.21.jar]. I suppose there should be multiple of these, if that actually is the problem? Thanks for your help!

This is usually a multiple classloader problem.

Ok, I figured out how to get at least the base logfile: LoggerContext ctx = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory(); for (Logger l : ctx.getLoggerList()) { ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger log = (ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger) l; Iterator<Appender<ILoggingEvent>> it = log.iteratorForAppenders(); while (it.hasNext()) { Appender<ILoggingEvent> ap = it.next(); if (ap instanceof FileAppender<?> || ap instanceof RollingFileAppender<?>) { FileAppender<?> fileAppender = (FileAppender<?>)ap; System.out.println(fileAppender.getFile()); } } }
However, when I try to use this code outside of my test environement, I get the following Exception on the first line: java.lang.ClassCastException: ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext cannot be cast to ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext
Any ideas? I'm currently using Jetty, slf4j and logback. However, it seems that there are still some dependencies on log4j in Jetty that I can't get rid of...

As far as log4j goes, the getAppender function can be used. However, I have not managed to get this one working for logback. Any ideas?

Let's assume the user only changes the logging levels/filter during runtime, nothing else.

Would a change notifier be told of the new filename? I'm not sure, but it's worth a check.

Everything works fine, however, I'd like to retrieve the filenames of the current logging session since the application started. The user can obviously change the log filenames and policies in logback.xml, so I don't want them hardcoded in the source. My goal is to retrieve these filenames straight within Java in order to do some more processing with them. Is there any possibility in logback/slf4j to retrieve those names? > > I currently aquire the logger via: > Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Test.class); > > but obviously, this Logger object in particular doesn't provide such functionality.
