Best solution I've come up with for this sort of thing is to use Nested
Diagnostic Context's (NDC) in log4j
have a look at the section on them in:
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html
Not quite what you want I know, but it will give you something to grep on.

Project" per httpclient instance

Hi Oleg,
I had a similar problem when I started using HttpClient last year.
Not thread-based though. I'm in a servlet engine, so I don't know
which thread will be processing the request that uses HttpClient.
I'd like to have different log settings per HttpClient instance, but
that's not possible because they all use the same static loggers.
It's not a big issue for me now, since I have enough application
level tracing. But if someone has an idea how this problem could
be solved once and for all, it might be worth considering for 4.0.
Like creating a logger for each HttpClient instance instead of
each implementation class. Or falling back to the class logger
only if no instance logger is configured in the params.
cheers,
Roland

Jorrit,
HttpClient relies on commons-logging toolkit to do all its logging. The
commons-logging itself is merely an abstraction layer intended to provide
a uniform interface to different logging toolkits. If there is a toolkit
capable of assigning different appenders on per thread basis, then
HttpClient can be configured to take advantage of it. To my best knowledge
Log4j cannot assign individual appenders to different threads within the
same application (within the same class loader context rather). You may
consider evaluating a different logging toolkit that provides such a
feature, or file a feature request with the Log4j project.

Subject: customizing debugging levels per httpclient instance
Hello,
I have an application consisting of two threads. Both threads have an
own instance of httpclient and use it for different things. I would like
to see the wire of one of the threads, but suppress the other. I use
log4j. log4j can set the debugging level (trace or not) based on
package/class names. I was wondering if it's possible to set the class
name for http client, so i can customize my debugging per thread. Or
perhaps I'm not understanding it correctly.
If this is not possible, I would like to make this a feature request.
Thanks in advance,
Jorrit Kronjee
