Laurent Bourges commented on LBGENERAL-50:
------------------------------------------

Are you interested by such contribution ? 
May it be integrated into logback source code / release ?

To implement such features, here is my code (LGPL 2.1 license to be compatible)
- LogbackGui.java
    This class provides two major functionnalities:
    - application log viewer
    - one simple  log GUI : Logger hierarchy browser / Level editor and displays current logs
    This class is dedicated to Slf4j @see http://www.slf4j.org/ (MIT License) using Logback @see http://logback.qos.ch/ (EPL v1.0 / LGPL 2.1).

- LogbackGui.form
    Netbeans 7.1 form to use netbeans Swing editor

- ApplicationLogSingleton.java
    This class keeps into memory the full application log using the logback root logger 
    and a custom appender to store log messages into one ByteBuffer (memory)

    Usage: call ApplicationLogSingleton.getInstance() during your application startup

- ByteArrayOutputStreamAppender.java
    ByteArrayOutputStreamAppender is a custom OutputStreamAppender that stores log events into a memory byte buffer.
    It provides the method getLogOutput(from) to get the buffer content as a LogOutput (String)

- LogOutput.java
    This simple class is a container for both String and byte count

> I was using JUL and loggui (http://www.informatrix.ch/loggui/index.html) to edit logger's level at runtime and look at application logs in our Swing applications; it is very useful when applications are deployed using Java Web Start (jnlp environment)
> I switched to SLF4J 1.6.4 / LOGBACK 1.0 last week. 
> As I wanted LogGui features for LogBack, I made it = LogbackGui (1 single and standalone java class): 
> This class provides two major functionnalities:

> This class is dedicated to Slf4j @see http://www.slf4j.org/ (MIT License) using Logback @see http://logback.qos.ch/ (EPL v1.0 / LGPL 2.1).
