When doing long builds in CruiseControl, ant build logs are generally logged using the XmlLogger.

In certain cases, say for example when the build is taking longer than usual, and needs to be killed/stopped, the XmlLogger does not flush contents to disk.

It would be nice if there is some sort of a composite logger than can chain any logger along with the XmlLogger.

I just happened to write one sometime today. This is the source code for a CompositeLogger that logs to a default logger, and the XmlLogger. This needs the environment variable ANT_LOG_PREFIX to be set (there’s no better way I can think of)

package com.thoughtworks.ant.logger;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.PrintStream;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;

import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildEvent;
import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException;
import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildLogger;
import org.apache.tools.ant.DefaultLogger;
import org.apache.tools.ant.XmlLogger;
