<br/>
    </appender>
<br/>
    <appender-ref ref="access_file" />
<br/>
</configuration>
<br/>

<br/>

<br/>
if I use the RollingFileAppender inside the siftingAppender, it can create the "access.log" file only,but the file is empty,nothing is wrote.
<br/>

<br/>
however,if I change the RollingFileAppender to FileAppender, like:
<br/>

<br/>
<appender name="SIFTING" class="ch.qos.logback.access.sift.SiftingAppender">
<br/>
        <Discriminator>
<br/>
            <Key>launchName</Key>
<br/>
            <FieldName>LAUNCH_NAME2</FieldName>
<br/>
            <DefaultValue>unknown</DefaultValue>
<br/>
        </Discriminator>
<br/>
        <sift>
<br/>
            <appender name="${launchName}" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
<br/>
                <File>logs/${launchName}.log</File>
<br/>
                <layout class="ch.qos.logback.access.PatternLayout">
<br/>
                    <Pattern>${ACCESS_NORMAL_PATTERN}</Pattern>
<br/>
                </layout>
<br/>
            </appender>
<br/>
        </sift>
<br/>
</appender>
<br/>

<br/>
the logback-access works well.
<br/>

<br/>
the sifingAppender can create different FileAppender for each ${launchName}!
<br/>

<br/>
these appenders using in logback-classic are perfect,I don't know why they can't work in logback-access!
<br/>

<br/>
actually, "ch.qos.logback.access.sift.SiftingAppender" and "ch.qos.logback.classic.sift.SiftingAppender"
<br/>
are extended "ch.qos.logback.core.sift.SiftingAppenderBase", they are just different from the Discriminator,
<br/>
they should work in the same way.
<br/>

<br/>
and the RollingFileAppender is in the ch.qos.logback.core package, the ways to use in logback-classic and logback-access are the same.
<br/>

<br/>
so, I can not tell where is the problem. For help!!!emergency!!! I love logback!
