how have you tried pointing it at a properties file?

it's a system property that needs to be set before tany code attempts to 
load any of the logging related classes, so in JRuby you may have to do 
soemthing special to specify it before JRUby loads the JVM (normally it 
can only be set on the command line when executing java, 
System.setProperty doesn't work (in any JVM)

worst case scenerio, you can modify the default logging.properties file 
that is in the JVM JRuby runs.

SLF4J is just a proxy API, it doesn't know anything baout log files or log 
levels or log filtering ... you can programaticly change the JUL Logging 
using the LogManager API...

 I'm sure it is possible to configure JDK logging (java.util.loging)
 programatically... but I have never had much luck with it.

 It is very easy to configure log4j programatically, and this works great
 with solr.


Don't suppose I could trouble you for an example?  I'm not terribly familiar
with Java logging frameworks just yet.


Programmatically configuring SLF4J for Solr 1.4?

2009-11-01 Thread Don Werve
So, I've spent a bit of the day banging my head against this, and can't get
it sorted.  I'm using a DirectSolrConnection embedded in a JRuby
application, and everything works great, except I can't seem to get it to do
anything except log to the console.  I've tried pointing
'java.util.logging.config.file' to a properties file, as well as specifying
a logfile as part of the constructor for DirectSolrConnection, but so far,
nothing has really worked.

What I'd like to do is programmatically direct the Solr logs to a logfile,
so that I can have my app start up, parse its config, and throw the Solr
logs where they need to go based on that.

So, I don't suppose anybody has a code snippet (in Java) that sets up SLF4J
for Solr logging (and that doesn't reference an external properties file)?

To use log4j rather then JDK logging, simply add slf4j- 
log4j12-1.5.8.jar (from http://www.slf4j.org/download.html) to your  
classpath
