[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-19?page=comments#action_12441093 ] Robert Greig commented on QPID-19: ----------------------------------
It would certainly impact the performance of the system. Howerver I think it is important to be able to capture full logs of the protocol interaction. In general people are going to switch it on when there is a problem. In addition I agree it would be useful to have some kind of circular buffer into which protocol frames could be kept, and dumped on particular scenarios. > Add protocol logging capability to client and broker > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: QPID-19 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-19 > Project: Qpid > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Java Broker, Java Client > Reporter: Robert Greig > > It is currently difficult to see the protocol traffic separately from the > client and broker logs. > It would be extremely useful to have the ability to switch on logging of > protocol traffic with the following features: > 1) log to separate file > 2) easy to parse format such as XML > 3) ability to "replay" these files, which will make analysing and diagnosing > customer problems easy since we can just get the client to capture the > protocol traffic, then play it back into a test broker for detailed analysis > 4) ship an "anonymiser" tool that will allow customers to take the file and > will anonymise the data - but will replace content bodies will random data of > the same length and so on. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
