I used the same build environment, so everything should be
identical. Please check it out and let me know. I'd like to
release it fairly quickly.
Sorry about the delay. Caught me in the middle of a move and I'm not
operating at 100%.
The v1.2.13rc1 build had no construction defects based on my tests.
I could rebuild the release with only the expected differences in the
Javadocs using JDK 1.3 and the unit tests passed on JDK 1.1, 1.3 and
1.5.
I did discover that the JDBCAppender depends on JDK 1.2 collection
classes and would likely not function in a JDK 1.1 environment.
However, that defect was not recently introduced.
I'm perplexed by the fix for TRACE level LocationInfo defect (Bug
36800). The only change other than ConsoleAppender change appears to
be changing the class used in determining the value for Logger.FQCN
from Level to Logger. It is not obvious to me (and I didn't follow
the earlier thread) how this would have only affected the TRACE
level. The use of Level does appear to be wrong (the C in the
variable name stands for Category and Category was replaced by Logger
not Level), but appears to be a long standing problem. I'd like to
understand how it was introduced to the code base in the first place.
Even though I originally committed the "honorReassignment" attribute
for ConsoleAppender. On later reflection (but after I packed away my
development machines), I now prefer "follow" as the name for that
attribute.
I do not know if the recent SyslogAppender (35743, 37282) defects are
significant enough to hold 1.2.13 until they are addressed.
