You have a valid point, and I'll consider bringing this back as it was. I will first have to consider what else this action might break... Originally, this is where the idea came from: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4PHP-114 To avoid the whole parsing issue, have you considered using the PHP config format? Since 2.2. it is possible to provide it inline as well as in a file. http://logging.apache.org/log4php/docs/configuration.html We're trying to push the PHP and XML formats instead of INI since they're more versatile and easier for us to parse and to document (working on an XSD for next release).
