RFR: JDK-8046565: Platform Logging API and Service

[Daniel Fuchs]

Hi,

I have updated the materials for the first prototype of
JEP 264 - Platform Logging API and Service.

I have done some minor editorial changes in the API doc
( null -> {@code null} ) fixed a few minor issues,
and added some new tests. Sandbox has been updated.

JEP:
http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/264
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8046565

specdiff:

webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dfuchs/8046565/proto.01/webrev.01/

A prototype implementation is available in the sandbox,
branch named JDK-8046565-branch
(Instructions on how to clone a sandbox branch can be found
here: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/docs/sandbox.html )


best regards,
