[log4perl-devel] Patch for accepting code snippets as config values

[<msc...@ao...>]

Hey guys,

I've been playing with the idea of generally allowing Perl code snippets starting like "sub { ..." as values for Log4perl configuration file entities. Config items that are in the "cspec" hierarchy are excluded because they're evaluated at runtime, not config-parse-time. Makes things like

    log4perl.appender.Logfile.filename = \
        sub { getlogfilename() }

easy to implement ...

Great idea, I was going to do the same when I got around to it.
