PJ Fanning created LOG4J2-1742: ---------------------------------- Summary: scala: add support for creating custom plugins Key: LOG4J2-1742 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1742 Project: Log4j 2 Issue Type: Improvement Components: Plugins Affects Versions: 2.7 Reporter: PJ Fanning
I tried to add a custom appender using Scala but the pattern of having a class with an Plugin annotation and a static method on that class with a PluginFactory or PluginBuilderFactory annotation doesn't seem to work in Scala. In Scala, you can create a companion object to a class where you can implement the equivalent of static methods but these are not the same class under the hood. The Scala compiler builds 2 or more classes, the companion object gets a class name with a $ appended to it. I think this is affecting the lookup for the method with the Factory annotation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
