EasyBeans OSGI - Logging on Equinox (together with Riena)

[ekke]

last weekend I went some steps forward in my integration of EasyBeans
OSGI and Eclipse Riena under Eclipse / Equinox 3.4.RC4

as reported earlier I made EasyBeans running under Equinox 3.4
(and did the same for Riena 1.0.M2)

now I put both frameworks together. the good news: it runs :-)
I'll report about this later and write a HowTo

the bad news: it was a hard way to make it run
see my blog entry
http://ekkes-corner.blogspot.com/2008/06/catch-22-logging-with-osgi-frameworks.html


I think after reading my blog you understand why I entered a JIRA
(http://jira.easybeans.org/browse/BUNDLE-2) ;-)

would be really nice solution if Easybeans also supports log4j
as logging implementation and not to rely on the bundle
ow2-bundles-externals-commons-logging.

btw: I also have some issues reported at Riena

with some enhancements in Riena and EasyBeans it should be easy
to use logging.

    Hi ekke,

I read your post and I agree on the EasyBeans enhancements in order to
make easier the log with log4j
(http://jira.easybeans.org/browse/EZB-204) (and easier the logging in
OSGi http://jira.easybeans.org/browse/BUNDLE-2).
BTW, these new features will go in the head and not in the 1.0.x bug-fix
branch.

Regards,

Florent

    Hi back,

I forget one thing: you're welcome to attach patchs to the enhancement
issues ;-)

Regards,

Florent

..think I'll need some time to 'warm up' with EasyBeans
and to learn how EasyBeans works before attaching patches

of course I'll do this if possible from my time schedule,

at the moment even testing all these things consumes much time...
