Hi All,

I've fixed the existing JMX package and wrote a HTML adapter on the top of SUN implementation to control logging configuration at the runtime. It proved to be quite handy for our integration testing (that runs application on remote machine).

Is this of any interest to you?

Cheers,

I suggested a log4j-JMX project as a potential Summer of Code project, but there were no proposals. I've skimmed this issue before, but never in depth.

I don't recall finding any archived discussions on the goals, design, status of the existing JMX code within log4j. It just seemed to appear in the CVS fully formed and have had little (if any) subsequent development. I recall seeing some discussion that had been designed with an early JMX version and was either not compatible or less than optimal with current releases of JMX.

I assume that we would be eventually be interested in the code. But it would be first good to know what specifically is wrong or less than optimal with the current JMX related code and have an outline of the options to fix the problems. If you have specific things that are broken in the JMX implementation, it would be great if you could create bug reports for each specific flaw and ideally associated patches with each. Much better to have multiple bug reports instead of a "Fix broken JMX code" bug report that addresses multiple issues.

I believe the current JMX related code allows some manipulation of the logging configuration at run time. One things that seemed potentially interesting is to have a JMX appender that would allow log4j calls to generate JMX events.

Would appreciate any and all comments.
