Log4j development

Re: Is anybody home? :-D

We've discussed the javac target option previously, setting target=1.2  
does not indicate that only methods in the JDK 1.2's class library are  
used, it means to output byte-code that adheres to that particular  
JVM's byte code format.  The target setting was intentional.  I'm not  
aware of any significant improvement that would come from bumping it.   
I definitely would not want to bump it on log4j itself.

I think the reason for bumping one of the companions to using log4j  
1.2.16 instead of 15 is that we were having class loading issues when  
UnrecognizedElementHandler (which is used to support nested content in  
user defined appenders et al) was defined both in log4j.jar and in the  
companion.  I think the interface was removed from the companion and  
the minimal version was bumped.

Just a note, in companion component the target is 1.1, the source is 1.2.

You're right, in fact the only problem is inside Eclipse, since it is
saying that the environment that I use (J2SE 1.2 over a Java SE 6)
gives me compile errors due to "restrictions in the use of some
classes", such as DOM classes.

Why not on the companions, then? Java 5 is at the end-of-life, while
Java 6 is mature, why not jumping *at least* into Java 5?

DO NOT REPLY [Bug 42842] Create a PUBLIC identifier for the log4j DTD

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42842

--- Comment #2 from Curt Arnold <carnold <at> apache.org> 2009-08-04 19:43:07 PDT ---
There is no code in log4j that outputs a XML declaration.  There was only one
place that could consume (the entity resolver that previously assumed that any
system identifier ending with 'log4j.dtd' was our DTD.  I modified it to also
recognize '-//APACHE//DTD LOG4J 1.2//EN" as identifying the current log4j.dtd. 
Should have no negative effect on any other public identifiers users have used
to identify the log4j.dtd.

Committed 801049.

Most likely there is another log4j.properties or log4j.xml on the class path. 
Sure you have figured it out or have forgotten it by now. log4j-user would have
been the right place for it.  Closing as INVALID.

Marking org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender and DRFA as deprecated?

I'm planning on spending a few hours each night on log4j to finally  
cut a log4j 1.2.16.

There are a decent number of bugs regarding  
org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender or  
org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender.  I'll look at the bug  
reports and see if there are any simple, low-risk fixes, but not sure  
that there will be.  org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender has  
some problems, but not as many as the org.apache.log4j RFA's.

Is it time to mark org.apache.log4j.RFA and DRFA as deprecated and  
suggest that users migrate to the RFA's in the extras companion?
