Changes for version 1.26 - 2009-11-22

  • (ms) [RT 50495] Perl code in the config file is now evaluated/ compiled after the configuration parser has done its work, opening up Perl subroutines to all configuration parsers, not just PropertyConfigurator. Configuration subs for cspecs, filter, warp_message and appender triggers are sheltered. The previous, flawed implementation surfaced while using a 'trigger' category, reported by Olivier Bilodeau.
  • (ms) [RT 50090] Added non-portable linebreaks to PatternLayout (requested by Zdeněk Juran).
  • (ms) [RT 50094] Docfix for PatternLayout in main manpage (spotted by Peter Rabbitson).
  • (ms) [RT 28679] Added exists() to "Threshold" keyword uppercase check.
  • (ms) Took out Class::Prototyped testcase after it got all weird and introduced backward-incompatible changes.
