Re: [logback-dev] Improvements to logback configuration

      The same idea would extend to other components, not just appenders.

Hi all,
In the release following version 1.0.12, I plan to make significant
improvements to the logback configuration format, so that you will be
able to write:
<fileAppender name="FILE">
     <file>testFile.log</file>
     <append>true</append>
     <encoder>
       <pattern>[%thread] %-5level %logger{35} - %msg%n</pattern>
     </encoder>
   </fileAppender >
instead of the current more clunky
<appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
     <file>testFile.log</file>
     <append>true</append>
     <encoder>
       <pattern>[%thread] %-5level %logger{35} - %msg%n</pattern>
     </encoder>
   </appender>
The old format would of course continue to be valid.
More details to follow after 1.0.12 is released.
