Hi folks,
We have in the 2.1 a number of features that are considered as deprecated, although still supported. We need a way to inform users (the ones that write Cocoon apps) that they use such deprecated features in a way that allows them to be found easily, and not intermixed in the usual logging flood.
So I'm thinking about a global logger dedicated to deprecation messages. This would allow to write all messages going to that logger to e.g. a "deprecated.log" file.
Now how do we make this logger accessible ? A static variable doesn't seem to be a good solution, so I'm thinking of adding it to the Avalon context. Any Contextualizable component can then access it.
Thoughts ?
Nice suggestion; but can't we just use WARN for deprecation warnings? In above-then-debug log setting these messages will be well noticable.
