If you add debug output to the method, you will see that the method is called very often, even after the trigger has already fired, but the file size is still growing larger than the maximum file size.
I assume that the rolling behavior has some kind of buffer which is emptied before the actual (synchronous?) rollover takes place.
I think it has something to do with the fileNamePattern in the com.mypack.rolling.CustomTimeBasedRollingPolicy
. As long as the 'second' in the filename does not change, the CustomSizeBasedTriggeringPolicy.isTriggeringEvent
method is continously called with amounts larger than the maximum file size.

Thanks for your answer.
I made 2 changes:
1) I Add milliseconds to the file name pattern:
<param name="fileNamePattern" value="C:/temp/test/test_log4j-%d{yyyy-MM-dd-HH_mm_ss_SSS}.log" />
2) I Changed
com.mypack.rolling.CustomSizeBasedTriggeringPolicy.isTriggeringEvent
to
public boolean isTriggeringEvent(Appender appender, LoggingEvent event,
String filename, long fileLength) {
boolean result = (fileLength >= maximumFileSize);
if (result) {
try {
Thread.sleep(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return result;
}
so now, the Thread.sleep(1) is called only when a new file is created (rolled).

method is continously called with amounts larger than the maximum file size.
add a comment |
If you add debug output to the method, you will see that the method is called very often, even after the trigger has already fired, but the file size is still growing larger than the maximum file size.
I assume that the rolling behavior has some kind of buffer which is emptied before the actual (synchronous?) rollover takes place.
I think it has something to do with the fileNamePattern in the com.mypack.rolling.CustomTimeBasedRollingPolicy
. As long as the 'second' in the filename does not change, the CustomSizeBasedTriggeringPolicy.isTriggeringEvent
method is continously called with amounts larger than the maximum file size.

Thanks for your answer.
I made 2 changes:
1) I Add milliseconds to the file name pattern:
<param name="fileNamePattern" value="C:/temp/test/test_log4j-%d{yyyy-MM-dd-HH_mm_ss_SSS}.log" />
2) I Changed
com.mypack.rolling.CustomSizeBasedTriggeringPolicy.isTriggeringEvent
to
public boolean isTriggeringEvent(Appender appender, LoggingEvent event,
String filename, long fileLength) {
boolean result = (fileLength >= maximumFileSize);
if (result) {
try {
Thread.sleep(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return result;
}
so now, the Thread.sleep(1) is called only when a new file is created (rolled).
