Jesse Yates updated KAFKA-1967: ------------------------------- Priority: Minor (was: Major) > Support more flexible serialization in Log4jAppender > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1967 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1967 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jesse Yates > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.8.3 > > > It would be nice to allow subclasses of the standard KafkfaLog4jAppender to > be able to serialize the LoggingEvent however they chose, rather than always > having to write out a string. > A possible use case - the one I'm interested in - allows implementors to > convert the event to any sort of bytes. This means downstream consumers don't > lose data based on the logging format, but instead can get the entire event > to do with as they please -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
