NAME
Log::Log4perl::JavaMap - maps java log4j appenders to Log::Dispatch
classes
SYNOPSIS
###############################
log4j.appender.FileAppndr1 = org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.File = /var/log/onetime.log
log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.Append = false
log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n
###############################
DESCRIPTION
If somebody wants to create an appender called
"org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender", we want to translate it to
Log::Dispatch::Screen, and then translate the log4j options into
Log::Dispatch parameters..
What's Implemented
(Note that you can always use the Log::Dispatch::* module. By
'implemented' I mean having a translation class that translates log4j
options into the Log::Dispatch options so you can use log4j rather than
log4perl syntax in your config file.)
Here's the list of appenders I see on the current (6/2002) log4j site.
These are implemented
ConsoleAppender - Log::Dispatch::Screen
FileAppender - Log::Dispatch::File
RollingFileAppender - Log::Dispatch::FileRotate (by Mark Pfeiffer)
JDBCAppender - Log::Log4perl::Appender::DBI
SyslogAppender - Log::Dispatch::Syslog
NTEventLogAppender - Log::Dispatch::Win32EventLog
These should/will/might be implemented
DailyRollingFileAppender -
SMTPAppender - Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSender
These might be implemented but they don't have corresponding classes in
Log::Dispatch (yet):
NullAppender
TelnetAppender
These might be simulated
LF5Appender - use Tk?
ExternallyRolledFileAppender - catch a HUP instead?
These will probably not be implemented
AsyncAppender
JMSAppender
SocketAppender - (ships a serialized LoggingEvent to the server side)
SocketHubAppender
ROLL YOUR OWN
Let's say you've in a mixed Java/Perl environment and you've come up
with some custom Java appender with behavior you want to use in both
worlds, "myorg.customAppender". You write a Perl appender with the
same behavior "Myorg::CustomAppender". You want to use one config file
across both applications, so the config file will have to say
'myorg.customAppender'. But the mapping from "myorg.customAppender" to
"Myorg::CustomAppender" isn't in this JavaMap class, so what do you do?
In your Perl code, before you call Log::Log4perl::init(), do this:
$Log::Log4perl::JavaMap::user_defined{'myorg.customAppender'} =
'Myorg::CustomAppender';
and you can use 'myorg.customAppender' in your config file with
impunity.
