You can release a jommon.log file that has been created in your current work session without having to exit from the JADE Monitor; for example, if you want to start the file from scratch to attach it to another application or to rename it.
To release a log file
Select the Release Log File command from the File menu. (This command is disabled if the log file has not yet been opened.)
The Info message box is then displayed, stating that the current log file has been released and renamed. Click the OK button to return focus to your current JADE Monitor view.
The current log file (named jommon_CCYYMMDD_user-id.log) is then released, it is renamed jommon_CCYYMMDD_user-id_released_HHMMSS.log, and a new empty log file is created for any additional logging in the current work session.
