Log4j 1.2 and JBoss. backward compatibilty problem

[T Master <tm...@iknowledge.com>]

Ceki,

Category.getChainedPriority()  has been removed in log4jv1.2 beta2 (i also
checked the javadocs online).
It has been replaced by  public Level  getChainedLevel();

I believe that as the Priority class is used as a superclass for Level, then the
method getChainedPriority() should remain, to preserver backward compatibility.

This is what the problem was with building JBoss using the log4j v1.2beta 2
jar - what caused the compile error.

I've looked in the history, and there is no mention of the method being removed.

Am I in error?


Regards,

T Master

T Master,

I removed the getChainedLevel method altogether and added
back the getChainedPriority method.  The getChainedPriority
method is marked as a deprecated with getEffectiveLevel method
as replacement.

The documentation refers to the effective level of a category so
the code is now better aligned with the documentation.

Thanks for pointing this out. Regards, Ceki

ps: Changes will be available in beta5.
