Why is the static value different from appender(log4j custom appender)?


I make static variable like this in spring.

public class A {
  private static final Map<String, Session> listMap = new HashMap<>();
  public static Map<String> getMap() { return this.listMap.values() }
  public static void addMap(String name, Session s) { return this.listMap.put(name, s) }
}

I save in service layer.

@Slf4j
public class BService {
  public void addSession(String name, Session s) { 
    A.addMap("a", s);
    log.info("added!");
  }
}

After saving it, I used it in custom appender.(https://www.baeldung.com/log4j2-custom-appender)

@Plugin(
  name = "MapAppender", 
  category = Core.CATEGORY_NAME, 
  elementType = Appender.ELEMENT_TYPE)
public class MapAppender extends AbstractAppender {

    private ConcurrentMap<String, LogEvent> eventMap = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();

    protected MapAppender(String name, Filter filter) {
        super(name, filter, null);
    }

    @PluginFactory
    public static MapAppender createAppender(
      @PluginAttribute("name") String name, 
      @PluginElement("Filter") Filter filter) {
        return new MapAppender(name, filter);
    }

    @Override
    public void append(LogEvent event) {
        Map<> resultMap = A.getMap();
        send()
    }
}

However, when the appender's append() method is executed, A.getMap() return nothing(size 0). (A.getMap() return correctly in service layer.) Why is the static value different?..


Solution

  • listMap is loaded when you call addSessionso it is empty When append() method is called
