Greg Holmberg commented on UIMA-282:
------------------------------------
We may be able to find some time to work on this. We are planning other
logging-related work on our own code, so we might be able to add this task in.
We need to get all the messages unified in our products, so this task for UIMA
is going to have to get done one way or another.
The trick will be selling management on the idea of spending money on something
and then not owning it. I think the strategy I should take is that 1. we have
to do it anyway, and this way we don't bear the full cost ourselves, we share
it with others, and 2. better to have the code integrated, tested, and
supported in the UIMA code-base than for us to maintain it separately.
> Work well with Apache logging (Log4J)

> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Greg Holmberg
> Priority: Minor
>
> UIMA uses the standard java.util.logging (JUL). Most of my company's code
> used Apache Log4J, so we have a problem merging the messages from the two
> logging packages. Given that UIMA is now an Apache project, I think it makes
> sense that it work with Apache logging.
> Two options occur to me:
> 1. Change all the logging calls in the code (perhaps Eclipse refactoring
> tools can help with that). Here's some discussion on migrating:
> http://www.oreillynet.com/onjava/blog/2005/12/migrating_from_jdk_logging_to.html
>
> You could convert either to Log4J ( http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs ) or
> to Apache Jakarta Commons Logging ( http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging
> ), which would allow UIMA to be configured to use either JUL or Log4J.
> 2. Write/find a JUL Handler that re-directs to Log4J. Here's an example:
