Hello, I have used log4cxx for a number of years and the last official release was 7 years ago. There was an effort to make a 0.11.x release in October but I don't see the result of that, plus it looks like all Windows based build projects and tools have been removed from the trunk. There are a number of web sites / projects out there to help people build log4cxx, apr, and apr-util on Windows. It seems to be a second-class citizen.
I spent yesterday making a cmake build environment for log4cxx that builds against the libapr-2 trunk on Windows. Since apr provides its own cmake environment, this simply picks up the installed artifacts and builds log4cxx on Windows. In the process I have found that although static linking seems to build okay, shared libraries are missing some LOG4CXX_EXPORT commands. I was able to build on linux against the apr-2 trunk as well by telling it that "--with-apr" and "--with-apr-util" come from the same location, since apr-util merged into apr. I see no quality controls on pull requests, leveraging the free travis and appveyor CI environments to ensure pull requests are of high quality. So my question is this - what is the state of this project? Is it dead? Are there people actively using it and working on it? Thanks, Jim
