You can register your own appender through log4cxx.  For example (cribbed from roscpp/src/libros/file_log.cpp:<div><br></div><div><div>    const log4cxx::LoggerPtr&amp; logger = log4cxx::Logger::getLogger(ROSCONSOLE_DEFAULT_NAME &quot;.&lt;your_name&gt;&quot;);</div>

<div>    log4cxx::LayoutPtr layout = new log4cxx::PatternLayout(&quot;[%c] [%d] [thread %t]: [%p] %m\n&quot;);</div><div>    log4cxx::RollingFileAppenderPtr appender = new log4cxx::RollingFileAppender(layout, &lt;your logfile name&gt;, false);</div>

<div>    appender-&gt;setMaximumFileSize(100*1024*1024);</div><div>    appender-&gt;setMaxBackupIndex(10);</div><div>    log4cxx::helpers::Pool pool;</div><div>    appender-&gt;activateOptions(pool);</div><div>    logger-&gt;addAppender(appender);</div>

Hi,<br>
When I use a named ros print I see that it gets its own logger level<br>
but the output still gets dumped into the same log file as every other<br>
print from that node.  Is there a way to have named prints go to their<br>
own log files?<br>
