[logback-user] Setting the log file file size with RollingFileAppender does not work

[Adriana]

I got it to work. Apparently my code was missing the definition of the
rolling policy. However, the logfile is not archived even when its size
exceeds the specified max. size.
Here is the relevant code snippet:

[...]
fileAppender.setFile("C:\\log\\log.txt");
FixedWindowRollingPolicy fwRollingPolicy = new FixedWindowRollingPolicy();
fwRollingPolicy.setContext(loggerContext);
fwRollingPolicy.setFileNamePattern(""C:\\log\\log-%i.txt.zip");
fwRollingPolicy.setMinIndex(1);
fwRollingPolicy.setMaxIndex(3);
fwRollingPolicy.setParent(fileAppender);
fwRollingPolicy.start();

SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy<ILoggingEvent> triggeringPolicy = new
SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy<ILoggingEvent>();
triggeringPolicy.setMaxFileSize("4KB");
triggeringPolicy.start();

[...]

fileAppender.setRollingPolicy(fwRollingPolicy);
fileAppender.setTriggeringPolicy(triggeringPolicy);
fileAppender.start();

[...]

Any suggestions on this? Thanx
