Stefano Santoro commented on KAFKA-244:
---------------------------------------
with this patch the kafka lof4j appender supports formatters. I tested it well
against logger properties specifying broker.list, but it hangs when I specify
zk.connect instead. The new log4j properties are serializerClass (instead of
encoder for serilizer.class), zkConnect (for zk.connect), and brokerList (for
broker.list)
> Improve log4j appender to use kafka.producer.Producer, and support
> zk.connect|broker.list options

> Taken from #kafka IRC session with Neha Narkhede:
> The log4j appender is quite obsolete, there are a few things to change there.
> Make it use the kafka.producer.Producer instead of SyncProducer. That allows
> you to use either the broker.list or the zk.connect option
