rollingpolicy_type_sizewin.h File Reference

Log4c rolling file size-win interface. Log4c ships with (and defaults to) the classic size-window rollover policy: this triggers rollover when files reach a maximum size. The first file in the list is always the current file; when a rollover event occurs files are shifted up by one position in the list–if the number of files in the list has already reached the max then the oldest file is rotated out of the window.

Detailed Description

Log4c rolling file size-win interface. Log4c ships with (and defaults to) the classic size-window rollover policy: this triggers rollover when files reach a maximum size. The first file in the list is always the current file; when a rollover event occurs files are shifted up by one position in the list–if the number of files in the list has already reached the max then the oldest file is rotated out of the window.

If the max file size is set to zero, this means 'no-limit'.

The default parameters for the size-win policy are 5 files of maximum size of 20kilobytes each. These parameters may be changed using the appropriate setter functions.

Function Documentation

LOG4C_API rollingpolicy_sizewin_udata_t* sizewin_make_udata ( void  )

Get a new size-win rolling policy

Returns
a new size-win rolling policy, otherwise NULL.

References sizewin_udata_set_file_maxsize(), and sizewin_udata_set_max_num_files().

LOG4C_API int sizewin_udata_set_appender ( rollingpolicy_sizewin_udata_t swup,
log4c_appender_t app 
)

Set the rolling file appender in this rolling policy configuration.

Parameters
swupthe size-win configuration object.
appthe rolling file appender to set.
Returns
zero if successful, non-zero otherwise.
LOG4C_API int sizewin_udata_set_file_maxsize ( rollingpolicy_sizewin_udata_t swup,
long  max_size 
)

Set the maximum file size in this rolling policy configuration.

Parameters
swupthe size-win configuration object.
max_sizethe approximate maximum size any logging file will attain. If you set zero then it means 'no-limit' and so only one file of unlimited size will be used for logging.
Returns
zero if successful, non-zero otherwise.
LOG4C_API int sizewin_udata_set_max_num_files ( rollingpolicy_sizewin_udata_t swup,
long  max_num 
)

Set the maximum number of filesin this rolling policy configuration.

Parameters
swupthe size-win configuration object.
max_numthe maximum number of files in the list.
Returns
zero if successful, non-zero otherwise.
