Delays in the next version...

Hi,

I've promised previously that I'll deliver the next version of log4erl about now but due to unforeseeable work, I won't be able to. My apologies if I kept you waiting. All new features and bug fixes are already done but xml_appender is still under development. However, don't be too depressed, it's not going to take a long time. I think it'll be ready by next week :).

Feedback for log4erl

Hi,

I've just seen some comments to say about a couple of emails I received from log4erl users. The first was from Loren of StackHub requesting XML appneder and the other from Kuba submitting an update to have log4erl handle calls to error_logger and requesting a fix to file_appender.

The bug in file_appender is that it copies files during rotation instead of just renaming them. For large files, this could results in timeouts or even crashes the program. I don't know what was I thinking but it's need a fix.

XML appender should be available in the next release and I'll also include Kuba's code and a fix to file_appender along. Thanks to Loren and Kuba for the feedback. Keep your suggestions coming and good luck.
