Editing trace.properties
You can use the trace.properties
file to configure
all aspects of logging, including the following:
-
Log file location
-
Log file rotation
-
Log file layout
-
Logging levels
-
Multiple log file generation
The following sections contain some hints on how to use
trace.properties
to achieve certain objectives, but
no more than that. For a full description of all the possibilities
offered by log4j
and the
trace.properties
file format (which is complicated),
see
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/manual.html
and
