A Rhino management sub task for creating a log socket appender.
| Attribute | Type | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
appendername |
String |
Name of the appender to create. This name must be unique. |
Yes. |
remotehost |
String |
Name or IP address of the remote host to connect to. |

Yes. |
protocol |
String |
"TCP" (default), "SSL" or "UDP". |
No. If not specified, the default is TCP |
immediatefail |
boolean |
When set to true, log events will not wait to try to reconnect and will fail immediately if the socket is not available. |
Yes. |
immediateflush |
boolean |
When set to true, each write will be followed by a flush. This will guarantee the data is written to disk but could impact performance. |
No. If not specified, defaults to true. |
bufferedio |
boolean |
When true, events are written to a buffer and the data will be written to the socket when the buffer is full or, if immediateFlush is set, when the record is written. |
No. If not specified, defaults to true. |
buffersize |
int |
When bufferedIO is true, this is the buffer size, the default is 8192 bytes. |
No. |
reconnectiondelaymillis |
int |
If set to a value greater than 0, after an error the SocketManager will attempt to reconnect to the server after waiting the specified number of milliseconds. If the reconnect fails then an exception will be thrown (which can be caught by the application if ignoreExceptions is set to false). |
No. If not specified, the default is 0 |
connecttimeoutmillis |
int |
The connect timeout in milliseconds. The default is 0 (infinite timeout, like Socket.connect() methods). |
No. |
keystorelocation |
String |
The location of the KeyStore which is used to create an SslConfiguration |
No. |
keystorepassword |
String |
The password to access the KeyStore. |
No. |
truststorelocation |
String |
The location of the TrustStore which is used to create an SslConfiguration |
No. |
truststorepassword |
String |
The password of the TrustStore |
No. |
ignoreexceptions |
boolean |
The default is true, causing exceptions encountered while appending events to be internally logged and then ignored. When set to false exceptions will be propagated to the caller, instead. |
No. |
failonerror |
boolean |
Flag to control failure behaviour.
If 'true', the sub task will throw a |
No. Default value is taken from the Rhino management parent task. |
Element |
Description |
Required |
filter |
A filter to select events that will be reported by this appender. |
No. |
layout |
The layout to use to format log events. If no layout is supplied the default pattern layout of "%m%n" will be used. |
No. |

This task will throw a
NonFatalBuildExceptionif the appender cannot be created, eg. an appender with the same name already exists.
