Hi Thorbjørn, Thank you for your proposal and for considering logback as a host for your software. How about setting up a sub-module for this? It could be under logback/logback-as400 (please confirm my choice of name). Do you rather it became an entirely different project? Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen wrote:
Hi Ceki.
After careful consideration I'd like to migrate the log4j routines I have written which caters to the AS/400[1] world into logback, hopefully benefitting the small but thriving "java on AS/400"-community[2] by providing better integration with qsysopr messages, spool files, qprint output and much more that I have only seen on this platform.
As this introduces a new software dependency, namely on the jt400 sourceforge project, and on actual hardware to run the tests against which is rather impossible for mere mortals, I would suggest that this should go in a new logback subproject incubator instead of being merged in any of the current logback projects.
What do you think?
