First, brute-force pass is complete. For those interested in seeing the general concept, i've posted it. Fair warning, it's pretty ugly. Much polishing before I submit it formally.
http://traxel.com/tools/LoggingEvent.java The method of interest is customReadObject( ObjectInputStream ) Note: I altered the indentation of the whole file. Hope I haven't offended anyone, but it's according to the Sun standard, which is what I'm used to, and what the Log4j FAQ states is preferred. Note: Made timeStamp not final, so it could be read from the data stream and assigned. Note: Made loggerName not final, so it could be read from the data stream and assigned. Note: Does not yet support version independance. Note: There will be significant changes before the next version, which I anticipate will be incompatible with this rough draft. Note: Nothing is documented yet. WARNING: This is *not* bug tested.
