What about nlog4j?

[Daniel Serodio <ds...@pucsp.br>]

I recently discovered nlog4j, and it seems like a "better log4j"
(specifically, avoiding "logger.isXxxEnabled()" everywhere). But the
latest nlog4j release is 1.2.24, which "can be considered as a drop-in
replacement for log4j version 1.2.9.".

There's very little documentation about nlog4j. Is it still being
developed? Will there be a new release based on log4j 1.2.13 ?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel Serodio

NLOG4J is basically an experiment to demonstrate that the SLF4J API can be 
natively implemented by log4j.    If you are keen to avoid isXXXEnabled 
calls, you can get SLF4J support by using the log4j binding for SLF4J which 
ships with the SLF4J distribution. Thus, calling NLOG4J a better 
implementation of log4j is probably not true.

There will be no NLOG4J releases based on log4j 1.2.13. However, you can 
expect new NLOG4J releases which synchronize with changes in SLF4J.

As mentioned on NLOG4J's web-page, all new development effort in NLOG4J is 
now redirected into LOGBack, a successor for log4j and NLOG4J.
