Kirk Lund updated GEODE-1275:
-----------------------------
Component/s: configuration
> Refactor custom appenders to move dynamic functionality into managers
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GEODE-1275
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-1275
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: configuration, logging
> Reporter: Kirk Lund
> Assignee: Kirk Lund
> Labels: AlertAppender, Log4j2, LogWriterAppender, log4j2.xml
>
> Presently Geode dynamically creates, adds and removes AlertAppender and
> LogWriterAppender by manipulating log4j2 core API. We should move the bulk of
> the Appender functionality to internal Manager classes and just leave the
> Appenders registered with log4j2 during the life of the JVM.
> This allows us to enable and configure our Appenders via log4j2.xml and
> control the Cache-controlled lifecycle completely within our own classes
> without having to add and remove custom Appender instances.
> The code would then become simpler. Our custom code would not have to invoke
> log4j2 core APIs and a User would have control over configuring our use of
> log4j2 via the .xml file. Presently, a User cannot configure our
> AlertAppender or LogWriterAppender in log4j2.xml.
