log4rexx - A log4j-Comparable Logging Framework for ooRexx Applications

Publication: Chapter in book/Conference proceedingContribution to conference proceedings

Abstract

While developing ooRexx applications programmers usually employ statements in the code that help debug the applications, gather (interesting) information about running those ooRexx programs and finally, report and log error conditions that may have raised while executing programs.
The log4rexx framework has been devised after studying and experimenting with Apache's log4j logging framework. It attempts to apply some of the human-centric philosophy of Rexx, by simplyfying the framework as much as possible, but still allowing the creation of specialised appenders to extend the framework. The application of the log4rexx logging framework for (oo)Rexx programmers is quite simple, straight forward and therefore easy to use. The talk will also discuss the configuration possibilities of the log4rexx framework which opens interesting possibilities to monitor and control deployed (oo)Rexx code.
