[Quickfixj-users] RFE: Making LogFactories more confgurable

[Toli K. <to...@ma...>]

Hey everyone,

We are thinking of using the JdbcLogFactory to save some of the FIX
messages to the database.
(side question:  anybody ever tested throughput/efficiency of that logger?)

However, compared to the ScreenLogFactory, the Jdbc and Mysql loggers
are very bare-bones and not configurable. for example, the target
table names where the messages are placed are hard-coded (see the rfe
at http://www.quickfixj.org/jira/browse/QFJ-75

Does anybody have any thoughts on improving the other loggers?
Currently, there are 4 vars for configuring ScreenLogFactory that turn
on/off some printing.
We'd like to have similar ones for the JDBC logger as well - which
would mean 4 more similar variables.

I'd be happy to prototype the new changes, and submit a patch for
review. Any thoughts/considerations before i do that?

In production, we'll most likely use a CompositeLogFactory, which will
output to the screen and/or DB depending on which configs are
specified. However, we may want to have different output going to
each, hence the need for parallel config parameters.

looking forward to hearing suggestions
