[jira] [Created] (FLUME-1980) Log4jAppender should optionally drop event if append fails

Hari Shreedharan created FLUME-1980:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Log4jAppender should optionally drop event if append fails
                 Key: FLUME-1980
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1980
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Hari Shreedharan
            Assignee: Hari Shreedharan


We should allow a config to drop the event when append fails, rather than throwing an exception. Clients usually dont want the logging call to throw an exception and probably won't have code to handle this - especially when the code is some pre-packaged code and not their own.
