Hi All: I find the name "log4j-combined-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar" unhelpful if not confusing considering we produce:
api\target\log4j-api-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar combined\target\log4j-combined-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar core\target\log4j-core-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar flume-ng\target\log4j-flume-ng-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar jcl-bridge\target\log4j-jcl-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar log4j12-api\target\log4j12-api-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar slf4j-impl\target\slf4j-impl-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar web\target\log4j-web-2.0-beta3-SNAPSHOT.jar So "combined" between what and what? I know it's api and core because I read that recently around here but it's not crystal clear. How about calling it log4j-api+core.jar just to be clear? But my point really is that I'd prefer not to have to think about which jars to include and just have a log4j-all.jar. In one project I work with we are approaching 100 third party jars. I'd rather have my Ivy (or Maven) build just say "log4j-all" just like I say "jetty-all" and "cxf-bundle". I know some folks have to worry about moving bytes around and sipping RAM, but other folks don't, so now that we've made the 'give me lots of little jars' crowd happy, can we make the 'keep it simple' crowd happy too with a log4j-all.jar?
