Method Detail

setFile

public void setFile(String fileName,
                    boolean append,

                    int bufferSize)
             throws IOException

Sets and opens the file where the log output will go. The specified file must be writable.

If there was already an opened file, then the previous file is closed first.

Do not use this method directly. To configure a FileAppender or one of its subclasses, set its properties one by one and then call activateOptions.

Overrides:

setFile in class org.apache.log4j.FileAppender

Parameters:

fileName - The path to the log file.

append - If true will append to fileName. Otherwise will truncate fileName.

bufferedIO - If true buffered IO will be used.

bufferSize - the size of buffer in bytes.

Throws:

IOException - if setting up the file IO fails.
