I have started exploring Logback option for our application. One of the requirement is to create a separate log file for log entries that have a specific "Marker".
Below is the logback.xml file that i am using and the error I am getting. The examples on the logback website shows the usage of SMTPAppender but I would like to use FileAppender instead. Is this possible? If not, what other option do i have?
<property name="USER_HOME" value="c:/temp" />
<appender name="AUDIT_FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
<evaluator class="ch.qos.logback.classic.boolex.OnMarkerEvaluator">
<marker>APPEND_SYSLOG</marker>
</evaluator>
<file>${USER_HOME}/mw_syslog.log</file>
<encoder>
<pattern>%date %level [%thread] %logger{10} [%file:%line] %msg%n</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
<root level="debug">
<appender-ref ref="AUDIT_FILE" />
</root>
