Class StackTraceLayout

java.lang.Object

org.apache.log4j.Layout

edu.cornell.mannlib.vitro.webapp.utils.logging.StackTraceLayout

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.log4j.spi.OptionHandler

public class StackTraceLayout
extends org.apache.log4j.Layout

This is a nasty Layout that prints a full stack trace for every logging event. Here is an example of how to use this to show full stack traces every time we get a log message from org.apache.jena.riot.

 log4j.appender.RiotAppender=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
 log4j.appender.RiotAppender.File= $${catalina.base}/logs/${webapp.name}.riot.log
 log4j.appender.RiotAppender.MaxFileSize=10MB
 log4j.appender.RiotAppender.MaxBackupIndex=10
 log4j.appender.RiotAppender.layout=edu.cornell.mannlib.vitro.webapp.utils.logging.StackTraceLayout
 log4j.logger.org.apache.jena.riot=INFO, RiotAppender
