[ https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-192?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.i... ] James Howe commented on SLF4J-192: ---------------------------------- The purpose of SLF4J is so libraries, not applications, can avoid using a particular impl. It is for the application, not any libraries, to decide which impl to use and when to tell it to release resources.
Need ability to shutdown loggers and flush appenders ----------------------------------------------------
Key: SLF4J-192 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-192 Project: SLF4J Issue Type: Improvement Components: Core API Affects Versions: 1.6.x Environment: Operating System: All Platform: All Reporter: Michael Schall Assignee: SLF4J developers list
There needs to be a way to shutdown logging and flush async appenders so when a process is closing, all log events are written before the process is closed. Should ILoggerFactory have a shutdown or stop method? It could shutdown whatever logging back end I'm using? For log4j it would call - org.apache.log4j.LogManager.getLoggerRepository().shutdown(); For logback it would call - loggerContext.stop() Other back ends - ??? This is required to allow me to not reference logging back ends explicitly in my code to shutdown successfully without losing events. Discussion about this is happening on the user list at - http://www.qos.ch/pipermail/logback-user/2010-September/001816.html
