Re: Is log4cxx still alive?

Hi.

I appreciate your try to make a fork but there are a few things on my 
mind before I'd commit there.

1. There already exists  a project named log4cpp 
http://log4cpp.sourceforge.net/
so the name is a bit misleading

2. You did not include old changelog, which is available at 
https://github.com/apache/log4cxx


A thing about log4net

It seems less cross-plaform than log4cxx, and seems to be harder to use 
on an embedded device.


Since ASF members do not want to maintain this software, like is visible 
from here.. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-385 (a patch to 
fix a issue)

I think the best idea would be to create a fork of that 
https://github.com/apache/log4cxx GIT repository.

I think old commit history with the bugs that were fixed is necessary 
for a forked project.

Thanks,
Roland

But currently nobody is (able to) commiting, that's the problem. ;-)

Folks who are maintaining log4cxx branches at github.com, don't forget to look 
at the network graph for the project --- you may find that the fix you need has 
already been implemented on another branch.

Hi.

Since I'm unable to commit to the original project, I forked it, and 
committed the LOGCXX-385 patch.

You can pull the fix, if you ever have time.

PS. Palic, Darko if we all fork the original project ( 
https://github.com/apache/log4cxx ), then github will remember the 
forking, and it will be really easy to pull changes from each others 
public repositories.

And the original ASF people can pull the changes they feel are good 
enough for them.

Regards,
Roland

hi all,

i think its better to continue with  https://github.com/apache/log4cxx
repo. Since it has change log, we can go ahead with committing bug fixes.

But i wonder which has the latest code.
