nicu marasoiu commented on KAFKA-244: ------------------------------------- it looks similar to the initial test but in debug i found that this one configures log4j for the first time when explictly called in test, while the other was already initialized at that point (was a second call to log4j PropertyConfigurer.doConfigure). Other info: my tests use TestNG attributes. I mainly reproduced it with rootLogger using Kafka appender, but also when it did not. > Improve log4j appender to use kafka.producer.Producer, and support > zk.connect|broker.list options > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-244 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-244 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: clients > Affects Versions: 0.7.1 > Reporter: Stefano Santoro > Assignee: Stefano Santoro > Labels: log4j, newbie > Fix For: 0.7.1 > > Attachments: kafka-244-v3.patch, Log4jAppender.patch, > Log4jAppenderWithWorkingZkConnect.patch > > > 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 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
