Thanks, I will have a look and let you know.
I think I will work on this after we released our bugfix release 2.2.1,
to prevent code branching.

----------------------------------------
Hi to all,
after long time I uploaded our lates version of log4j's UIMA logger
implementation.
I hope it could be useful for you.
Work well with Apache logging (Log4J)

Key: UIMA-282

Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Core Java Framework

Priority: Minor
Attachments: Log4jLogger_impl.java, Log4jLogger_impl.java,
TestLog4jLogger_impl.java, TestLog4jLogger_impl.java
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: http://home.gwu.edu/~amrinder/chainsawHandler/UsingChainsawWithJDKLogging.html
