Eli Collins reassigned HADOOP-4757:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Alex Loddengaard)
> Replace log4j.properties with log4j.xml
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-4757
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4757
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.20.203.0
> Reporter: Alex Loddengaard
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: log4j_xml_config.patch, log4j_xml_config_v2.patch
>
>
> Certain log4j features are not configurable via the log4j.properties file,
> not to mention the log4j.properties file is messy. For this reason, we
> should transition to a XML file to configure log4j. The .properties vs. .xml
> argument has only come up in HADOOP-211, where the XML configuration was
> vetoed for Tomcat integration issues.
