Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-1528: ------------------------------------- A method returning the current object as a string in some format is traditionally named {{toFormat}} or {{asFormat}}. I don't think there's a convention for methods returning void that write the current object into a parameter but {{writeAsFormat}} would be a good candidate. The current name is ok too, although you may not need "File" at the end. It should _not_ be called toSomething I think. > Serialize configuration into a log4j2.xml file > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-1528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1528 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Configurators > Affects Versions: 2.6.2 > Reporter: Mikael Ståldal > Assignee: Mikael Ståldal > > This would be useful for e.g. converting from Log4j 1 to Log4j 2 config. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
