RES: stdout logging

[Edson Carlos Ericksson Richter]

I used this code. To start loggin, I have to call at least one time the init
method.
I`ve created some facilities to me (at my JSP and Servlets I`m not using
System.err.println( "mensagem" ), but Log.log( "mensagem" (that`s short).
(note that messages are in Brazilian Portuguese).

) );
            e.printStackTrace(  );
