Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-2132: ---------------------------------- Shouldn't the admin stuff be part of the main client jar? Kind of makes sense to have producer, consumer, admin, plus any future clients provided they are all clean dependency-wise. And wouldn't including this then drag in log4j as a dependency for the admin tools? > Move Log4J appender to clients module > ------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2132 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2132 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Gwen Shapira > Assignee: Ashish K Singh > > Log4j appender is just a producer. > Since we have a new producer in the clients module, no need to keep Log4J > appender in "core" and force people to package all of Kafka with their apps. > Lets move the Log4jAppender to clients module. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
