I don't think you looked carefully enough. Fixing some of the way
things are currently implemented will probably break compatibility.
For example, getting rid of Category - which has been deprecated for
years.
That is true. So 100% binary compatability will not be kept.
Creating a good implementation of LocationInfo requires Java 5 as that
is when Thread.getStackTrace() became available. nio didn't become
available until 1.4. Frankly, I have zero interest in working on a
log4j that doesn't have Java 5 as a minimum. Log4j is "good enough"
for older Java releases but real improvements need to be made.
I'm looking forward to seeing what you specifically have in mind. There
are probably a lot of things I have missed living firmly in the pre-1.5
world (we have to be able to run on plain AS/400 installations where 1.3
is the only JVM available).
One way or another, JBoss and log4j need to play better together. I
created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-18 just for that.
Feel free to update it with your thoughts.
I'll have a look at it
The point of the Jira issues was to do exactly that. I suggest that
instead of posting the ideas here where they will probably be
forgotten that you add them as Jira issues. Then go ahead and start
figuring out how to implement them.
I know. Perhaps it is just a matter of habit, but I like to discuss things before creating the issues.
