[logback-dev] Eclipse plugin

[Maarten Bosteels]

You are right, it doesn't work.

I think this is happening:
* Logback is sending a serialized LoggingEvent over the socket
* the LoggingEvent has a reference to the foo.bar.Car instance
* the Eclipse plugin receives the bytes over the wire and tries to
deserialize the LoggingEvent, this fails because the foo.bar.Car class
is not on the classpath.

Resolution: I think the SocketAppender should only send the formattedMessage
over the wire and not the argumentArray.
In other words:  argumentArray should be declared transient.

Let's see what the LogBack developers think about that ...
