Proposal for a new useful (?) Eclipse plugin [message #242688]

Hi!

I am not sure if this exist - at least I havent been able to locate
something like this.

I have an idea that it would be possible to create an Eclipse plugin that
uses the debug interface to attach to a remote JVM and monitor and control
log4j settings. Something similar to LogWeb -
http://www.codeczar.com/products/logweb/index.html - but where the only
changes on the target JVM would be to enable remote debugging.

Would it be possible to implement something like this?

Certainly, although it really has nothing to do with debugging per se.
The approach I would take would be to write a LogWeb client as a plugin;
it would talk to LogWeb using something like Jakarta's HTTPClient
library, providing an Eclipse-hosted GUI instead of requiring the user
to open a browser and use the LogWeb web GUI.

Hope this helps,
Eric
