First off, if you're only supplying a .jar file, you're not delivering a complete webapp, but rather just some (perhaps all) of the classes of the webapp. A webapp consists of more than just classes; consult the servlet spec for the additional spec-defined items such as WEB-INF/web.xml. Also, a complete webapp contains a WEB-INF/classes directory, where items such as logging configuration files may be placed. Second, I hope you're using an actual logging facility (such as log4j), not just blindly dumping things to System.out or System.err. All proper logging facilities provide for some means of configuring the level of the detail and the output location; whoever is creating the full webapp (of which your .jar is just a portion) has the responsibility of setting up the logging configuration appropriate for the installation. If you have been lazy and used System.out or System.err for logging, the person configuring the complete webapp can set swallowOutput="true" in the <Context> element for the webapp. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
