Hi Experts,
I am using java compute node to write to a file using log4j(One provided by the Log4j, not the IBM provided Log4j).
I am using Rollingappender to write the file. For the fresh deployment of the flow the rollng appender is working fine.But the for the subsequent write it is appending to the same file even after it is crossing maxFileSize.
The problem I see is that the DataFlowEngine is locking the file even after the write by log4j.
So is there any way to make dataflowengine to release the file after the write?
I am using IIBv10.

Best practice says use java.util.logging and not log4j
You can have custom formatting classes to make the output more log4j like...
Have fun

Thanks for the reply.
But I need to implement RollingAppender.
Do you have any idea on IIB's this behavior?

I doubt very much so. Don't forget that some of that logging output gets cached an thus written in a delayed manner. I would not try to bounce the broker to release the file lock. Bouncing the eg (now Integration Server) should be enough. On the other hand you say you need to implement RollingAppender -- wrong you WANT to implement RollingAppender, but you can do that in java.util.logging by specifying the number of files to write to. I believe the lowest is always the latest unless there are some concurrency issues while logging...
