Need a Logger subclass which redirect everything to common-logging
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOT-1545
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1545
Project: GeoTools
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core metadata
Affects Versions: 2.5-M0, 2.4-RC0
Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
GeoTools uses Java logging ({{java.util.logging}} package), but GeoServer need
the ability to log to different frameworks. We wish (if possible) to code
against Java logging API since commons-logging is not the only candidate (SLF4J
is an other one), Java logging is an attempt of standard API available on every
JVM (1.4+) and its API is more elaborated than commons-logging one. The
proposal is:
* Create a {{java.util.logging.Logger}} subclass, {{CommonLogger}}, that
delegates everything to commons-logging, including methods like
{{info(String)}} and {{isLoggable(Level)}}. Some methods may not have direct
match (e.g. {{getHandler}}), but they are of interest only for advanced users
(and an indirect match is possible anyway with the {{CommonHandler}} already
available in the GeoTools code base).
* Switch all {{Logger.getLogger(xxx)}} methods to a special GeoTools utility
class (maybe the existing {{Logging}} class) that will return either the plain
java logging logger, or the {{CommonLogger}}, depending on a configuration.
* We'll have some way to switch GeoTools logging one way or the other (and the
same will have to work for GeoServer as well).
