[slf4j-dev] svn commit: r1265 - slf4j/trunk/slf4j-site/src/site/pages

[ravn]

Author: ravn
Date: Sun Jan 11 14:11:48 2009
New Revision: 1265

Modified:
   slf4j/trunk/slf4j-site/src/site/pages/extensions.html

Log:
Added note on disabling troublesome classes in the log backend
configuration file as it has turned out to be very hard (for me) to
handle recursive toString() calls programatically.

+    <p>Some classes may misbehave when being rendered with "object.toString()" 
so they may be explicitly disabled 
+    in the logback configuration file permanently.  For instance the 
ToStringBuilder in the Apache Jakarta commons lang 
+    package is a prime candidate for this.  For logback add this snippet to 
logback.xml:
+    <pre>&lt;logger name="org.apache.commons.lang.builder" level="OFF" 
/&gt;</pre>
