Hi all, I think the logging component is almost ready for a (long awaited) 1.1.2 release. It fixes several bugs, especially a nasty deadlock in WeakHashtable, which was requested by several people already.
There are two issues for which I would like to get more feedback before starting a RC: * LOGGING-135: Thread-safety improvements For the Log4JLogger and the LogKitLogger, I did implement the double checked locking idiom from Josh Bloch for the getLogger() method. Now this only works safely for Java 5+, but I was hesitating to make these methods synchronized as they are used everywhere in the adapter. * LOGGING-144: LogFactory ignores Throwable There are several throw/catch(Throwable) in the code, where certain exceptions like ThreadDeath are silently ignored. I provided a patch, but would like some people to review it before applying it. There are no reports about problems in the wild, so we could also postpone this fix.
