Re: Update of the Integrative Genomics Viewer to version 2.0 ?

[Shaun Jackman <sjackman@gmail.com>]

Hi Charles,

I'm going to be pretty busy for about two weeks. I probably won't have
time to look into this until then. If 1.5.65 compiles cleanly and
works, there's no harm in uploading that in the mean time. I can take
a look into the 2.0 log4j issue two weeks from now. The
RollingFileAppender class is at least present in the jar:

$ strings /usr/share/java/log4j-1.2-1.2.15.jar |grep /RollingFileAppender.class$
org/apache/log4j/RollingFileAppender.class

Cheers,
Shaun
