JBoss EAP 6.4 logging filter-spec
doc_fire Oct 6, 2015 5:56 AMI'm trying to use the "filter-spec ..." definition independently for different handlers.
The problem is that there is some kind of inheritance that I really cannot figure out: When using the "filter-spec ..." within the console-handler the filter is also applied within the size-rotating-file-handler but not the other way round.
I want to use the filter within the console-handler only for the console-handler and the filter within the size-rotating-file-handler only for the size-rotating-file-hanlder.
Current configuration looks similar to this (I've also tried it without the "filter-spec value="accept"" within the root-logger)
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:1.5"> <console-handler name="CONSOLE"> <level name="DEBUG"/> <filter-spec value="all(substituteAll("\n","/n"), substituteAll("\r","/r"), substituteAll("\t","/t"))"/> <formatter> <named-formatter name="DEFAULT_LOG_PATTERN"/> </formatter> </console-handler> <size-rotating-file-handler name="SFILE"> <level name="INFO"/> <filter-spec value="all(substituteAll("a","AA"), substituteAll("e","EE")), levels(INFO)"/> <formatter> <named-formatter name="DEFAULT_LOG_PATTERN"/> </formatter> <file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="sizerotated.log"/> <rotate-size value="1M"/> <max-backup-index value="15"/> <append value="true"/> </size-rotating-file-handler> <logger category="org.hibernate.SQL"> <level name="DEBUG"/> <filter-spec value="accept"/> </logger> ... <root-logger> <level name="INFO"/> <filter-spec value="accept"/> <handlers> <handler name="CONSOLE"/> <handler name="SFILE"/> </handlers> </root-logger> <formatter name="DEFAULT_LOG_PATTERN"> <pattern-formatter pattern=""%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.......;%E";%n"/> </formatter> </subsystem>
I found out that if the order of the handlers within the "root-logger" is changed to:
<handler name="SFILE"/> <handler name="CONSOLE"/>
then the inheritance is the other way round.
