15.7 Third-Party log4j Extensions
Several helpful third-party tools and utilities are
available for log4j. Most of them are free
and/or open source. For example, there are several Swing-based GUI
applications that allow you to view and filter log messages
dynamically, which is ideal for administrators in a production
environment. There are also several other types of appenders that other developers
have created that might be helpful to you. You can find these
third-party extensions in the log4j download
area at
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/downloadl.
It's definitely worth the time to take a look and
see what's there. The list of available extensions
is constantly growing. |
