Use the browse button to specify the file represented by the log. This path is a combination of the file directory and file name. The file directory can be one of
two types: First, it can be a physical path on the local hard drive such as c:\programs\logs
or f:\myapp\server\logs or it can be a network path for a shared
resource on the network such as \\MyComputer\MyLogsFolder
or \\Magic\share\logs. You can also specify a name pattern in the Log directory path field, in order for XpoLog to match several directories to the given path.
For example, if your logs reside in directories f:\myapp\server\1\logs, f:\myapp\server\2\logs etc, you can specify the path f:\myapp\server\{number}\logs,
and XpoLog will search for logs in all matching directories. In the log directory
XpoLog will search to find the log files according
to the log name pattern. The file name can also |
|
The file name - In order to
browse over more then one file you must specify how to
recognize the log files in the log directory which belong to
the same log family. If you will give a specific name such
as mylog.log XpoLog will search for this log only in the log
directory and present it. But if your log is scattered over a
collection of files that differ by date indicated in the log
file name it is necessary to specify what is the name
pattern of the log file for example: If your file names look
like this myapp-21/02/2002.log where there exist also
myapp-10/03/2002.log you need to specify the
following pattern - myapp-{date,dd/MM/yyyy}.log.
If your file name name looks like this myapp.log.1, myapp.log.2
etc. you need to define the following pattern myapp.log.{number}. For
