<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>one of our services is currently using a plain RollingFileAppender for logging to the file system.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>A new requirement just popped up, which demands</div>
<div style="text-indent:35.4pt;">to add a specific headline in each log file (on top of it)</div>
<div style="text-indent:35.4pt;">to only add this information once (e.g. if my service gets restarted and logback picks up a pre-existing log-file)</div>
<div style="text-indent:35.4pt;">not to automatically roll-over to a new log file if my service gets restarted (time windows and log-files need to correlate) – still only 1 headline per file.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think this would be best solved on logback-configuration level, but I am not sure how.</div>
<div>I hope this is not an entirely uncommon need. - Maybe you can help.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks a ton!</div>
