To get stuff into the log, you have to do the following (I'm assuming your
in a servlet at the time!)
this.getServletContext().log("msg");
or
this.getServletContext().log("msg", exception);
Check the API docs for HttpServletContext for more details. As to how you
can tailor this logging to reflect the debug level set for your context (ala
log4j), I don't know. This works a treat in all my stuff anyway.
