Folks,

This is a request for feedback regarding JIRA CAS-1082, Move Log4J
initialization into Spring bean config so that cas.properties can be
applied. -  https://issues.jasig.org/browse/CAS-1082

Also see Pull Request: https://github.com/Jasig/cas/pull/22

I'm proposing this change be included in CAS 3.5 consistent with the
release strategy:
https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CAS/CAS+Roadmap

Motivation for this change comes from working with over half a dozen
CAS deployments over the last year or so.

This approach preserves the default location of
WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml while making it very easy for deployers to
externalize the location via settings in cas.properties. This is
helpful in multi-node deployments, deployments across multiple tiers,
and preserving configuration between upgrades.

A comparison of this patch against 3.4.11 showed no loss of logging.

Best,
Bill
