<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Hi!</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Perhaps I misunderstood
it, or got a bit crossed up, because I dig into syslog-ng-Configs since
weeks, but I am unsure about the "flags(final)" statement</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I have several
includes with several log-statements and several sources</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">e.g. (no
runnable syntax, only for demonstration-purpose)</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">0001-A.conf</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">log {</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
source(s_tcp_A);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
filter(f_filter_A);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
destination(d_somewhere_A);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
flags(final);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">};</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">0002-B.conf</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">log {</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
source(s_tcp_A);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
destination(d_somewhere_BBB);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
flags(final);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">};</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">As I understand
it, first of all, its included in "alphabetical order", so in
my case first 0001-A.conf, then 0002-B.conf and so on.... </span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">But now my "Problem"
and question</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">(Yes I would normally
do a "if"-Construct to solve that, problem above, but I used
that example to understand the flags(final),)</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">If I have a message
received by s_tcp_A, filter f_filter_A hits, the rule sends it to d_somewhere_A
and do a "Escape" cause of flags(final), does the message still
got processes by the include of 0002-B.conf??</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Does the flags(final)
is only relevant for one "log-rule", or does it ends the whole
processing?</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">To be honest,
I habe several includes, and a "last" one, which is imported
last, with a "hit"-all, in my childish thought, if the flags(final)
stopps processing of the message compleetly this hit-all only gets "the
junk" where nothing else hists. Why do I do that, and not write it
in one file with a large if-elif-else-construct, I do that for the readability
since this file would be extremly large.</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I am thankfull
for any help</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">cheers</span>
