For version 1.3 I am creating a mechanism so that events from SocketHubAppender, JMSAppender, or any new appender can be easily received by Chainsaw, LF5, or any client gui. The design was inpired by how LF5 handles the receiving of remote events currently. Right now neither supports SocketHubAppender as a remote source. Not without modifications anyways. I have modifications for Chainsaw if you are interested.
But once the 1.3 mechanism is in place, assuming the design is accepted, it will no longer be a matter of what remote appenders your client tool supports; it will support all current and future appenders automatically. It will instead be a matter of what features the tool provides to configure sources and view/filter events. -Mark > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Bailey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 3:19 PM > To: Log4J Users List > Subject: RE: How to use Chainsaw? > > > Hey :) Yep, I'm using Chainsaw now (partly motivated by seeing your > SocketHubAppender thread before).
