Later rules add up on earlier rules except if= =20 they contain already existing properties in which case they mask older=20 properties. In short, if there are more than one source for styles most=20 users are likely to get very confused. We don't want to mislead or confuse= =20 users whenever we can help it. The best solution I can think of consist of linking to a style located at a= =20 well-known URL by default but allow the user to override that default by=20 specifying an alternative URL if need be. This approach will work out of=20 the box in 95% of the cases and still allow developers to handle=20 exceptional cases when necessary. >I'll update the code over the next few days to support this and get an >update file posted back to the list. > >Sorry for the HUGE delay, > >Steve --=20 Ceki G=FClc=FC For log4j documentation consider "The complete log4j manual" ISBN: 2970036908 http://www.qos.ch/shop/products/clm_t.jsp =20 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscribe@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-help@logging.apache.org
