Hi Scoot,

Thank you for posting your question on this list.

ReporterAppender is probably not useful enough for a wider audience. As such, I do not think it is advisable to incorporate it into logback proper.

Best regards,

Hi!


My PR #352 (https://github.com/qos-ch/logback/pull/352) was closed,
stating that it’s not generic enough. Given that TestNG is the most
widely used Java testing framework in the world, how much more generic
does a Logback logger need to be for it to be included in the mainline
project?



The primary challenge with spinning this up as a separate project is
that much of the basic building blocks for developing loggers and unit
tests haven’t been defined or published in a form that facilitates
extension and importation of these existing declarations. Consequently,
it’s necessary to duplicate a significant volume of the implementation
from the mainline project into the companion logger project. This is
terribly inefficient and exposes the external project to the risk of
breakage as revisions are applied to the mainline project that aren’t
automatically picked up by the companion project.



Please advise.



Thanks!
