----------------------------

Ha Ha.  An oldie but a goodie.   This JIRA has been quite the roller coaster over the years.  The belligerence shown, and comments like James makes keeps me coming back for more.  Keep it up guys!

> There needs to be a way to shutdown logging and flush async appenders so when a process is closing, all log events are written before the process is closed.
> Should ILoggerFactory have a shutdown or stop method?  It could shutdown whatever logging back end I'm using?
> For log4j it would call - org.apache.log4j.LogManager.getLoggerRepository().shutdown();
> For logback it would call - loggerContext.stop()
> Other back ends - ???
> This is required to allow me to not reference logging back ends explicitly in my code to shutdown successfully without losing events.
> Discussion about this is happening on the user list at -
