Description Milan Kubec 2001-02-06 16:02:01 UTC 
IDE should write logs as XML stream/file. It could be switched either by startup
option (something as -logxml) or by default. Or both logs (txt and xml) could be
created under system folder.

Structure of XML:

top element:
<logsession date="">

Startup build info could be either CDATA or regular XML tag e.g.

<systeminfo version="" ideversion="" os="" jvm="" locale="" homedir="" .../>
<classpath>
  <pathelement name="">
</classpath>
</systeminfo>
and so on.

Installed modules:
<module name="" version="" dependencies=""/>

Exceptions could be written as:
<exception name="">
ClassNotFoundException blabla at 123
</exception>

Not bad idea, but I would rather wait into JDK1.4 which will come with
java.util.logging package. Then we rewrite the ErrorManager to use the package
and will get XML logging for free.

Please remind us when the JDK1.4 (at least beta) will be out

Reminder.
Comment 4 Jaroslav Tulach 2002-02-18 08:40:07 UTC 
Ok, 1.4 is out and we could write a special ErrorManager to log using
java.util.logging. Anybody wants to do it?
