different log4J log files for same application

[crash.test.dummy]

hi,
i have an application that listens on a specific port to do its task.
This application can run on multiple instances by specifying different
ports in the argument.

MyApp-1211.bat contains
java MyApp 1211

MyApp-1311.bat contains
java MyApp 1311

MyApp-1411.bat contains
java MyApp 1411


this application logs to a file. the problem is all 3 instances log
into a single file, myApp.log. is there a way to tell log4j to use
different log files, like:

myApp-port1211.log
myApp-port1311.log
myApp-port1411.log

thanks.

The short answer is yes. The long answer is that I can't tell you
exactly how to do it, but perhaps the folks at the log4j-users mailing
list ([email protected]) can. See http://www.apache.org/

HTH,
