I sure hope it doesn't take us 1-2 years, but with our track record I'd be pretty foolish to make any promises at this point :-). > > Quick questions regarding Commons Logging proposal: > > Letting people choose their logging implementation is not a bad idea, but > I've been hearing negative things about Commons Logging in its ability to > detect the correct implementation to use. Something about classpath > problems, if I remember correctly? Are these issues solved? 99.9% of the issue is configuration -- getting the right JARs and configuration files in the right place. In that sense its not really different than any other JAR that might be included in the webapp or installed in the container. You just need to get all the moving parts where they belong. And use C-L 1.0.4 or later, of course, because there were some critical bugfixes. Struts 1.x has used C-L from the very beginning of its existence, and we've been satisfied with it. > Again, this is > just little me's two cents, but I am in favor of minimizing third party > dependencies as much as possible, and I don't see very much reason not to > use the JDK 1.4 implementation. Anyone? There are a lot of potential customers that have existing environments based on things like Log4J, and those folks would be really (and justifiably) irritated to be required to configure two logging systems. > > Regards, > \Anders Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
