Chainsaw V2 has been available for over 3 years, is stable and
relatively bug free.  

Chainsaw V2's dependency on log4j 1.3 is that it stores logging event
information internally using the log4j 1.3 LoggingEvent class.  It also
provides a way to define 'receivers', which first became available in
log4j 1.3.

Chainsaw V2 dependency on log4j 1.3 does not mean you have to use log4j
1.3 on the appender side - you can use log4j 1.2.x to send events to
Chainsaw via socket appender, xml or regular file appender.

Subject: 1.3alpha-8 question


We are looking at using the latest version of Chainsaw (version 2.0) in
one of our projects. I noticed that it requires log4J version 1.3. Why
is this still in alpha version and is there a release date for the final
1.3 version?  Are there any problems or things I should know about given
that it is an alpha version?  One of my coworkers thinks we should look
at other options since alpha versions are often unstable and haven't had
the problems worked out yet.

Thanks for any information you can provide,

Quinn Cheung
