Hi,
I've written a JMSQueueAppender that basically writes to a JMS queue (very similar to the existing JMSAppender which writes to a JMS Topic). My question is : Each time a log request comes through, will new connection, session, and sender objects be created each time ? I implemented my JMSQueueAppender in almost the identical way to the current JMSAppender. I'm also using log4j with only 1 Category instance (the root). I'm just a little unclear about when activateOptions() is actually called.
Case 1: If it's called each time a log request is made, then I'm guessing that new connection, session, and sender objects will be created per log request.
Case 2: But if activateOptions() is only called once, then I'm guessing that this JMSQueueAppender instance is used repeatly to serve all log requests, which case only 1 connection, session, and sender object is created. In this case, since I'm only using one Category instance, do I have to worry about synchronization, or session pooling ?
Thanks,
Jamie
