Taglibs and Commons Logging
I'm trying to find the best way to integrate commons-logging into my taglibs. Do any of the jakarta taglibraries use the Commons API for logging? If so, how do you configure the environment so that the appropriate logging facility is picked up and used? I'm struggling to get the default be the Simple logger, then other Logging implementations be used if availble. But I can't see how to do it simply within the taglibary/Jatr for my project. Any tips would be helpfull, -Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Taglibs and Commons Logging
I've been attempting this strategy, but it seems that in the web application, somehow the properties files in the classes directory don't seem to get recognized by commons logging and used. When I compile my tags, they get deployed into jars in the WEB-INF /lib directory. I'm concerned that the libs endup on the classpath before the properties files, I'm wondering if theres a chance that its not searching the whole classpath when seaching for the properties files. Am I missing something? Here's my layout: /WEB-INF/classes/commons-logging.properties org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog /WEB-INF/classes/simplelog.properties org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.defaultlog=trace org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.showdatetime=true /WEB-INF/lib/commons-logging.jar /WEB-INF/lib/commons-logging-api.jar /WEB-INF/lib/mytags.jar And I don't see any log events in catalina.out for the log.debug(...) calls I'm making in my classes. -Mark Karr, David wrote: Struts uses commons-logging.

Re: Taglibs and Commons Logging
Hold on, I made a stupid mistake, my files were named commons-logging.properties.properties for some weird reason. It works now. thanks, Mark Mark R.

Karr, David wrote Well, I would guess there's a good reason for that. The SimpleLog class just emits to stderr. Are you not able to see your server console? I just tail catalina.out usually to track stuff I'm working on. Or I build my own log for a particular webapp if there's too much other activity going on there. Right now I think that catalina.out is set to be where stderr goes by default in a standard tomcat install on Linux, I could be wrong. Thanks for the help, I hope this info is of some help to others too, Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
