Paul, I'm going on vacation and won't be able to look at Chainsaw v2 until next month :( For my application, the primary feature I'd like to see is the ability to treat Chainsaw as a software component, rather than just as a standalone application. This means making sure that System.exit() is never called, or is limited to one overrideable point, as indicated in the patch I sent. Just as log4j is embedded within my application, it makes sense to me that a log4j GUI would be embedded in the GUI for my application. The more OO/componetized Chainsaw is, the better for my purposes. This would also be useful in embedding Chainsaw in other applications like IDEs and server administration consoles. Something as simple as a ChainsawPanel that I could add to my GUI would be really cool... BTW, I just had my first use for NDC -- whoever is responsible for this design, thanks -- it's always nice to find a generic solution that actually fits my specific problem... - Matt

Subject: RE: Patch: Override ExitAction in Chainsaw
Hi Matt,
Thanks for the patch, but unfortunately the old Chainsaw is now replaced
with the new version in CVS, so I don't think I can apply this one. I'm not
aware of any discussion of an interim 1.2.9 release, I think we're just
working our way towards 1.3.
I haven't had a chance to do much Chainsaw v2 work lately, but if you are
game, perhaps you could try out the new Chainsaw running in-Vm with your
app? I think I have some spare mental-bandwidth at the moment to help out
with any issues you have. You're scenario would be a good test for us, as I
don't think we've done much testing along this line, and I would be really
keen to ensure it works really well.
cheers,
Paul Smith
