I've only been using log4j for a few months now, and while reading this mailing list, a question has been forming in my mind. It looks like most people use an XML formatted configuration file. I am not currently doing that, but I got wondering. It looks like there is a limit to what I can do with the property-list style configuration file. Is this true? Even if I'm not doing something fancy now, would it be better to switch to using an XML configuration file so that, if I needed to, I could enable the more complex features (without changing my source code)? Or can I do everything in the property-list style file?
I have an off topic question which people can choose to ignore. If you have an answer/suggestion, feel free to email directly if you don't want to pollute the list. Since I program in Perl as well as java, I know all about CPAN. I've been looking for a web site similar to CPAN, but for java jars. I've looked at jars.com, but the descriptions aren't rich enough and the categories aren't specific enough (at least for what I was recently looking for.) Basically, I'm just spoiled with CPAN. I can usually find something related quickly when I look around CPAN... and I think java would benefit from this too. Are there any well organized, well indexed web sites for java jars?
