Ceki Culce,<div>Yes, you're absolutely right. </div><div>I do have log4cxx and log4j clients write to the same log4j SocketServer but things got little bit more complicated since the front-end of my app (a friend of mine is working on it) will be written in Adobe Flex.</div>
<div>I'd like to be able to get anything an end-user does, whether he/she clicks on the "OK" button or a "Cancel" button or move some kind of slider to a different position etc. I'd like to capture this "event", log it by sending it to the same server that takes all the log messages from all the clients I have (C++, java and Flex) and writes them all to just one (in a perfect scenario) Rollover File Appender. </div>
<div>As you know (you've written it ;-) Log4j or Logback has such appender already and I'm trying to utilize it.</div><div>I'm not sure though if this is possible without running two or so servers that write to two different files.</div>
<div>(something I'd like to avoid)</div><div>Thanks for asking and letting me know about the log4j compatible XMLLayout</div><div>I Appreciate, </div><div>Greg <br><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

If I remember correctly, you already had log4cxx write to a log4j<br>
SocketServer using XML layout. You can do the same with logback's<br>
log4j compatible XMLLayout. See [1] for more information.<br>

That worked.....<br>
Awesome. Thank You.<br>
I'd like to ask you another question....<br>
I'd like to use Logback instead of Log4j however Log4j server along with Log4cxx client and with SocketAppender<br>
"understand" each other. That is, I can log with log4j Server messages (with the SocketAppender) that are<br>
coming from the Log4cxx clients and of course log4j clients. Then, I can write all these log messages to just one file<br>
on a server where my Log4j server is running.<br>
This is what I'm really after. I know that Log4j, and I assume also logback as well, has JMSAppender.<br>
I don't know that much (yet) about JMS but I wonder if there's a way to use it to write messages coming<br>
from C++ client, Java or whatever client we may have.... (I know I need to handle Flex clients as well, Oh man!)<br>
I know you more knowledgeble in this area........<br>
Please let me know if there is a way to "capture" all these different log messages coming from different clients somehow<br>
and persist them to one repository (like a DB or a flat txt file)<br>
Thanks<br>
Greg.<br>
