Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-549:
------------------------------------

This solves the "how do I use log4j in solr" problem, but I think it sends solr 
down the wrong path.  I really don't think we want to deal with configuring the 
logging internally.  That is what the logging frameworks are supposed to do for 
us!

Rather then taking this approach, I think we should just use SLF4J 
(http://www.slf4j.org/), it does what this patch does, but it is supported 
elsewhere and has more options ;)

> Enable configurable logging (jul or log4j)

> java.util.logging does not allow to easily create a self-sufficient 'war' 
> with respect to logging configuration.
> The java.util.logging.LogManager used by the application is always created by 
> the container and is thus only configurable through the container; 
> furthermore, if one already uses say log4j in a webapp that embeds Solr, it 
> does not even seem possible to re-route jul logging into log4j just by 
> configuration.
