Implement Log event acknowledgment with Log4J ?

[Marcel Bruch <ma...@cheruskia.de>]

Hi log4j-user,

   I've posted this before to the dev-list but didn't get an
   answer. Maybe it was the wrong list for my question. Sorry for that.

   I'm using log4j in my projects for a year I think and I'm really
   happy with the functionality of log4j.

   Now in my new project I got a new requirement: I have to send a
   log message to a special receiver and I need to get a
   acknowledgment before doing some actions. If the acknowledgment
   fails to appear after a small amount of time my application has to
   perform some error handling.

   I think that log4j - or in general a logging system - is not
   intended to give feedback to the calling object that the log-event
   has been logged but this or something similar I need.
   I only have a small amount of messages that need a acknowledge.

   Now my question: would it be a good choice to create a logger with
   acknowledgment fuctionality and use it within log4j or should I better
   write my own implementation?

   Thanks for hints.
   
regards,
 Marcel
