Hi I am just starting out with log4j, and I am currently looking at configuring log4j using configuration files so that log output can be controlled at runtime rather than being hard coded. However, on looking at the Javadocs for log4j, it seems that a lot of the static class fields have been deprecated in favour of using the JavaBeans paradigm. Surely this means that most of the configuration therefore has to be done programmatically rather than using a configuration file? For example, with SMTPAppender, only a few static fields remain, meaning that most of the configuration has to be done programmatically e.g. SMTPAppender mail = new SMTPAppender(); mail.setFrom("[EMAIL PROTECTED]"); mail.setTo("[EMAIL PROTECTED]"); mail.setSMTPHost("Notes.gateway"); mail.setSubject("Hello World"); mail.activateOptions();
Can anyone advise whether I am right in thinking this, or whether I have got the wrong end of the stick. Many thanks Lyndsey --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
