Seemingly I have not posted the patch correctly. I attached it as a NtEventLogAppender.java file in MS Outlook but when I looked in my mail inbox there is no java attachment! Is this a problem of my mail system or a problem of of the log4j-dev-list? I try to send it as zip attachment but to play it safe I sent it inline...

Februar 2003 07:46 An: 'Log4J Developers List' Betreff: AW: NtEventLogAppender without NtEventLogAppender.dll makes my ap p ha ng Done. But this only touches the NetSendAppender part of the problem. We have this problem as well in the NtEventLogAppender. This appender is part of the log4j distribution, so I think one of the log commiters has to worry about it (maybe one of the authors: Chris Taylor or Jim Cakalic?). I attach my patch so someone can decide to integrate it to the log4j distribution. Regards Volker -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Mark Womack [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Dienstag, 25.

This appender is part of the contributions, and as such is not really tracked like the core classes are. We'll be happy to update the version in cvs with an updated version from Jay. -Mark > -----Original Message----- > From: Mentzner, Volker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, February 25, 2003 12:10 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: NtEventLogAppender without NtEventLogAppender.dll > makes my app > ha ng > > > Hallo, > > working with NtEventLogAppender and NetSendAppender > (contribution of Jay > Funnel) I found one common irritating behaviour: > When I don't have the correspondig dll's in my path > (NtEventLogAppender.dll > and NetSendAppender), an exception is thrown > indicating that the library cannot be loaded.
