[Cdk-jchempaint] LoggingTool

[Mark R. <ma...@eb...>]

A brief question regarding the JCP applet and logging.

I'm starting to get the applet to work in my local IDE (Jdeveloper) but 
I don't see the debug messages anywhere.

The applet uses the CDK LoggingTool, but my question is whether that 
seems wise. The LoggingTool does not immediately make sense to me - does 
it require log4j or can it work without it ?
If log4j is required, I suppose we should not use it in the applet, 
because to make it work we'd have to include a log4j.jar file in the 
distribution.

I think I'd personally opt to just use System.out.println(), going 
straight to the JRE console window. Probably most convenient, also for 
users to trace bugs.
