[SOLVED] Extension logging to alternate files

[fuzzydunlop]

Hi,

I'm working on a serverside extension for ZCS and am wondering about how to best use the logging facilities provided in ZimbraCommon.


You can log to /opt/zimbra/log/sync.log (for example) by doing
ZimbraLog.sync.debug("foo");

which gives something along the lines of
2008-11-05 21:36:18,015 INFO [main] [] sync - foo


However if you do this (and variations thereof)
LogFactory.getLog("myextension").debug("bar");

this output goes to /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log
2008-11-05 21:15:58,437 INFO [btpool0-13] [] myextension - bar


So.. is there a way to log to /opt/zimbra/log/mylog.log simply through code or do you need to modify some server settings?

nevermind... adapted my approach based on zimbra/conf/log4j.properties
