Hello,
I'm trying to try out the jul-log4j bridge, but I'm not sure if it
is possible to enable in from within log4j.properties, rather than
programmatically. Our project configures log4j with a flat
properties file, rather than XML. Is it possible to enable the
plugin without modifying the code anyway?
You can't configure any log4j plugins without the DOMConfigurator.
This goes for all Plugins (Receivers etc), so unfortunately the
answers no at this stage, sorry.
I tried to compile the bridge from source via Maven, but there were
a bunch of dependancies not available on the plugin maven poms.
I've taken to excluding the jmx dependancies in the pom, but there
was an problem with apache-log4j-component.jar
the Bridge project is waiting on some downstream log4j sub-projects
to be released before it too can be released. You can easily build
the dependencies.
Just check out:
svn co http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/logging/log4j/companions/
component/trunk log4j-component
cd log4j-component
mvn install
Once you have the log4j-component module installed in your local
maven repo, building the bridge should work. Please let me know if
it doesn't. :)
cheers,
Paul
