Hello,
I have another one question. Why is Log4jLoggerAdapter from slf4j-log4j12
(version 1.7.5) final? I want to have access to its private field (logger
instance from log4j). I want to be able to add "my own appender" to one of
logger (with all underlying hierarchy of appenders). Is it possible somehow, or
I have to make my own backing appender and use it instead of slf4j-log4j12? I
just want to hook to log messages flow in one logger (with hierarchy).
Now I have done it this way:
In constructor of my GUI class where I need to catch all log messages I have
done this code:
if(log instanceof Log4jLoggerAdapter) {
Logger l =
Logger.getLogger("sk.plaintext.gui.package.example");
l.addAppender(new
ProgressBarAppender(this.progressBar));
}
So if my project uses slf4j-log4j12, I will make my own log4j logger (variable
l) and add my custom appender to it. It will receive all messages from slf4j
loggers, which are directed through log4j. This workaround is working well,
while I am using log4j as backend. Is it possible to make something like this
in universal way? Only dependant on slf4j-api?
PS: Just for clarification. Class ProgressBarAppender is listening for
ProgressMadeMessage messages (serialized ones because of slf4j limitation
described in first post) and set progress to given JProgressBar instance. Code
which is doing any computation can be anywhere in given package hierarchy
("sk.plaintext.gui.package.example") and it is free of any gui related imports
or any weird interfaces for progress reporting.
Thanks,
