Abhishek Sharma commented on LOG4J2-836:
----------------------------------------
Thanks [[email protected]] for the reply.
These days, in Apache Kafka project I am working on one of the issue which
requires logging in Binary. Kafka right now is having dependency on log4j
1.2.17.
I have implemented custom appender extending AppenderSkelton class and writing
data using DataOutputStream. I am not sure about protocol on which
DataOutputStream implementation works. Will take a look on this.
One question I want to ask more, is there any utility in log4j 2 for reading
this binary data back?
