Exception Driven Programming in Java

I just finished reading Exception Driven Programming and I'm wondering about something like ELMAH for Java. Did you know it?

Interesting features:

  • A web page to remotely view the entire log of recoded exceptions
  • A web page to remotely view the full details of any one logged exception
  • An e-mail notification of each error at the time it occurs
  • An RSS feed of the last 15 errors from the log
  • other interface (JSON, RESTful interface, etc)
  • A number of backing storage implementations for the log, including in-memory, JDBC, JMS, etc
  • open source

NOTE

log4j is for logging, it is not an integrated solution for exception handling

A: 

It is trivial to build such a system on top of Log4J.

did you ever read the ELMAH features?

I read up on ELMAH before responding to your question. Really. :)If you're using Log4J in an application, all you would need to do is reconfigure for email and database logging and then write up a few simple report pages that allow you to inspect the errors that have been logged to the database.

I'm looking for a complete, well supported and reusable library... like ELMAH :-)

What about combining Log4j and Quartz scheduling as an exception reporting solution?

why Quartz? please explain it better

Quartz can help in job scheduling i.e. categorizing different types of exceptions and send a e-mail report to their respective developers in-charge!
