Jdk14Logger wrapper does not respect logger name
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LOGGING-132
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGGING-132
             Project: Commons Logging
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.1.1, 1.1.0, 1.0.4, 1.0.3, 1.0.1, 1.0, Nightly Builds, 
2.0
            Reporter: Nathan Niesen
            Priority: Minor


The JDK14 wrapper implementation logs using the callers class name instead of 
the configured logger name. This prevents the ability to use named loggers for 
applications and subsystems. It is also problematic for obfuscated code and 
private parts of an application or library.

Example:
I have a class named com.myco.product.subsysa.ClassX.InnerClassY and I create 
logger LogFactory.getLog("SubSystemA").

With the other log wrappers, if I log a message I always get something like:

    Oct 21, 2009 5:03:26 PM
    [INFO] SubSystemA start - My log message

With the JDK log wrapper, I get something like:

    Oct 21, 2009 5:03:26 PM com.myco.product.subsysa.ClassX$InnerClassY start
    INFO: My log message

Or worse yet with obfuscated code and the JDK log wrapper, I get something like:

    Oct 21, 2009 5:03:26 PM 
com.myco.product.subsysa.ClassX$_oOOO.o00000000000000000000000000000
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
    INFO: My log message


The fix:

In the calls to logger.logp(...), replace cname with this.name. Loggers created 
with the class name will still get the class name.


    private void log( Level level, String msg, Throwable ex ) {

        Logger logger = getLogger();
        if (logger.isLoggable(level)) {
            // Hack (?) to get the stack trace.
            Throwable dummyException=new Throwable();
            StackTraceElement locations[]=dummyException.getStackTrace();
            // Caller will be the third element
            String cname="unknown";
            String method="unknown";
            if( locations!=null && locations.length >2 ) {
                StackTraceElement caller=locations[2];
                cname=caller.getClassName();
                method=caller.getMethodName();
            }
            if( ex==null ) {
                logger.logp( level, cname, method, msg );
            } else {
                logger.logp( level, cname, method, msg, ex );
            }
        }

    }
