Hello,

NB: I'm hoping to knock JCL1.1 into releasable state over the coming

Please check to put the patch in bug 38174 into RC. Even if you decide
against the logic in the new "doLog" methods, it would be nice to have
the other cleanup (javadoc, same null behaviour for all classes).
Please check my comments on that bugzilla entry.
I have read your comments and opinions in the bugzilla entry[1].
As I do not want to put so much time in a more or less boring task
(improving the JavaDoc and care for doLog single method logic is a lot of
copy and correct paste) I have removed anything of the exception behaviour.
I have also removed the String.valueOf when the underlying logger accepts
objects as message.
Every file has single patch. With accident cause I did an format after
removing the exception handling - sorry for that, it will cause more diff
than is really different.
Please consider again to put this into release.
i'm going through the patches (by hand) now.
i notice that a lot of the parameters are now declared final (which is -
usually - good). i would have expected that this should not effect
binary compatibility but unfortunately, i can't find anywhere in the JLS
where this is definitely specified. i'm very reluctant to add any
changes which risk (at all) binary compatibility issues.
anyone know of a definitive reference?
