[logback-dev] [JIRA] (LOGBACK-719) Provide a mechanism to specify an appender factory class

[Ceki Gulcu (JIRA)]

Ceki Gulcu commented on LOGBACK-719 Provide a mechanism to specify an appender factory class I suppose this factory must be able to construct objects other than appenders. Indeed, most appenders require sub-components of various types. Currently, on demand object building is done by the instantiateByClassName() method (and variants) located in the ch.qos.logback.core.util OptionHelper class. We could refactor the code so that the on demand object building is performed by an instance of an interface, say OnDemandObjectFactory. Logback would ship with a default implementation of this interface. However, it would be possible to override this implementation by registering a different implementation. All logback components get injected a context. So the most obvious registry point for a custom OnDemandObjectFactory would be a new method in the ch.qos.logback.core.Context interface.
