Class CrowdHomeLogAppender

java.lang.Object

org.apache.log4j.AppenderSkeleton

org.apache.log4j.WriterAppender

com.atlassian.crowd.console.logging.CrowdHomeLogAppender

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.log4j.Appender, org.apache.log4j.spi.OptionHandler

public class CrowdHomeLogAppender
extends org.apache.log4j.WriterAppender

A Log4J appender which is aware of when the crowd.home property is set and will switch logging from the console to within the crowd.home directory.

All the console logging will be buffered so that once the switch to logging in the crowd.home is made, all existing logs can be written to this favoured location.

This appender accepts a subset of the RollingFileAppender's configuration, although while it is delegating to the ConsoleAppender it will only use the layout settings.
