you are reading minds. I thought the same when I was under shower this morning. > Should we introduce exceptions in log4php? If so where do we need it and > what kinds of exceptions can you think of? I think it's useful to have a > shared overview of where we want to throw exceptions. I think too that we should introduce exceptions. Basically I don't think we need too much exceptions. Next point worth of discussing is the naming. Imagine: ConfigurationException. This exception could be used by other people too which makes it difficult to include Log4PHP till namespaces are introduced. Maybe LogException will do the trick and I don't think we need much more exceptions since Log4php is so wonderful lightweight. Christian > > Knut > >
