Jason Gorman has a thoughtful reply on his blog about using Crap4j.

CRAP is not all forms of crap

Jason Gorman, posted a critique on his blog about some code in the Crap4j codebase. He mentions one particularly long method, SystemCrapStats.toXml(). It was indeed quite a long method that was responsible for persisting the statistics gathered into the report.xml file. He asked the question:

Crap4j will be kind of quiet the next few weeks as we all head off for vacation.

We have a lot of fixes in the latest version, and a bunch of cool new features for the statistics website, but they'll have to wait for the new year. We want them well-tested, so we're going to hold off until we get back from holiday.

In the meantime, please keep using crap4j, and letting us know how it goes.

See you in the new year, with lots of nifty new features and fixes.

Happy holidays. Peace and good will to all.
