Package org.log4jfugue

Log4Jfugue converts your application log messages into music. The conversion is controlled by modifying the spring-log4jfugue.xml file. The messageReceiver bean defines a set of properties where the key is the name of an instrument and the value is a string to search for in the incoming stream of log messages. When a matching message is found the count for the associated instrument is incremented and the next measure of music includes that note.

Instruments can be either chromatic or achromatic.

Log messages can be processed in real-time by defining the standard Log4j SocketAppender in the program to be monitored, or old log files can be re-played.

Description

Class Summary

FileDataGetter	Gets data to process from an existing file.
InstrumentVoice	Represents an instrument, which voice to play it in, and which log message causes the instrument to be played
Log4jAppenderDataGetter	Thinking about how to do this.
MessageReceiver	Listens for log messages to process.
Music	This is the central repository of knowledge about the system.
MyMusicApp	The main application of the system, ie a sample client application, TODO: finish the suite of JUnit tests, add a simple application to play the file created by the PretendPlayer, create a data flow diagram for the package, make the File DataGetter be able to replay at different speeds, make sure that the pretend player works with the Rhythm player.
PretendPlayer	This class doesn't actually send the music strings to JFugue, it writes them to a file for later playback.
RhythmSoundBuilder	Derived from the SoundBuilder class, this class builds and plays a rhythm based sound.
SimpleDataGetter	The base class for all of the ways to get data into the system.
SocketDataGetter	This data getter spins a thread that does socket accept and then spins another thread (L4JFSocketNode) to do the actual socket reading.
SoundBuilder	One of the two primary threads of the system, this class builds and plays the actual music strings.
