[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-2267) Verify Custom Appenders (command, audit) work in AS7

[Ramesh Reddy (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-2267?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12728438#comment-12728438 ] 

Ramesh Reddy commented on TEIID-2267:
-------------------------------------

After looking closely at the AS7 code, even with the Log4J extensions, this does not help Teiid to provide custom appenders. The issue is CommandLogMessage or AuditLogMessage is squashed flat into string before it log message gets to the custom Handler/Appender class.

The options we have is

1) Persuade AS7 to provide such extension  
2) Provide a different way to intercept the message object in Teiid that can be extended.

> AS7 has different logging configuration than the AS 5.1. The appenders do work as is, and configuration may be different. However based on this AS7-4925 it looks like Log4J appender can be supported in AS 7.2. This information needs to be verified and update Teiid documentation at 
> https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/teiid/Custom+Logging
> https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/teiid/Logging
> Since 7.2, is not available yet if we want to fix this change the document to use java.util.logging.Handler interface to extend and add configuration like below in the logging subsystem in standalone-teiid.xml file
> {code}
> <custom-handler name="COMMAND" module="" class="org.something.CustomAppender">
> </custom-handler>
>   <logger category="org.teiid.COMMAND_LOG">
>       <level name="INFO"/>
>       <handler name="COMMAND"/>
>   </logger>
> {code}
