[jboss-as7-dev] i18n Logging and Messages

[James Perkins]

Hello All,
As some of you may or may not have noticed we've started merging some 
changes into the AS7 upstream for i18n logging and messages.

What does this mean to you?

Only use the message loggers for logging levels INFO or higher and all 
message logger methods must have an id. A list of id's can be found here 
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/LoggingIds. Anything below the logging 
level INFO should still use message logger, but just invoke the logging 
method directly, e.g. ConnectorLogger.ROOT_LOGGER.debugf("Building 
DefaultBootstrapContext: %s", value).

All message bundles must also have a unique id as well. *Note that at 
this point the subsystems that have been updated to use the i18n message 
bundles do not have unique id's, but will in the future.

Also both message loggers and message bundles must have a project code 
of JBAS.

See the connector subsystem 
(https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as/tree/master/connector/src/main/java/org/jboss/as/connector) 
for an example of how we're using the message loggers and message 
bundles. Or to see just what changed in the connector subsystem 
https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as/commit/8dd0d5c1269ac20ffcc45dd9d606f9e6fea27617.

Please feel free to ask any questions or for further clarification.
