http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35677 Summary: Switch to a better log system - slf4j Product: Velocity Version: 1.5 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: Source AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since I'm still very unhappy with the current logging workaround in velocity, I removed the complete velocity logsystem stuff and replaced it with slf4j (see http://slf4j.org/manual.html ; http://slf4j.org/faq.html). So, the final thing is a little bit smaller and should be wrt. logging easier to use (i.e. no need for passing runtime svc handles back and forth just to be able to log something), much faster, safer and more precise and powerful than the old one... In case your are interested, I'll attach the patch made against the saturday evening svn repository. It basically contains the log changes as well as some code cleaning (i.e. remove/comment out unsed vars/methods, removed unneccessary casts as well as nested else clauses, removed throw XExceptions, which are actually not thrown). Finally I switched many log.info into log.debug, since the appropriate messages are important for developers only and should not irritate the enduser (who usually doesn't even understand that freak language ;-)). To get the thing running out of the box, I modified the buildfile to include log4j.properties in the jar, so that nlog4j aka log4j NG ;-) finds and uses it automatically, if one has not explictly configured it. And of course build/lib/log4j has been replaced with nlog4j (see http://www.slf4j.org/nlog4j/download.html) Regards, jens. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
