There are ways around it, however: you can configure your log server to listen in whatever endianness you need, with the default being the native format of the platform you're running on. If you're expecting logging from multiple platforms with mixed endianness, well, listen on two differently configured sockets. The same goes for type sizes, which gives you a maximum of 4 different flavours of connection.
The main reason that I need this bit of code is to easily produce a real-time interleaved log file from various components, written in a spread of perl, C++, Delphi and Java - however, they're all on the same system so I know the endianness and type sizes. I would be surprised to come across somebody needing to read more than two of the endianness/type size combinations - or have I entirely missed the boat?
Are there any plans to ship another version of the 1.29 code stream?

Unfortunately, log4cxx's binary format is not platform independent. There have been reports that 32-bit and 64-bit implementations don't interoperate and I assume that 32-bit big-endian and 32-bit little-endian wouldn't.

Ceki,
As the code currently stands it has two drawbacks:
1) It has my company's internal package names and structure. Worry not, I have permission from the organisation to donate this code - logging software is not exactly our core business. :-)
2) Having been written under the assumption that it would be an internal tool, it has not been properly integrated into Log4J. The correct way to do this would be to modify org.apache.log4j.net.SocketServer to accomodate multiple methods of parsing the incoming stream.
I'll gladly fix these items if you decide that this will be of interest - I don't want to do the work if this has to stay an internal tool! As the apache lists don't accept attachments, how do I get the code to you?
