Re: [Proxool-developer] Why embeed external packages?

[Claudio D. <o1...@ti...>]

Hi Bill,

I use the following commons-logging.properties file to force the Jakarta 
Commons Logging system to use a specific Log:

--BOF--
#
# Instruct the JCL default LogFactory to instantiate our specific
# implementation.
#
org.apache.commons.logging.Log=com.tntstudio.log.ConsoleLogger

# Our logger can be configured by setting few properties in the
# "console-logger.properties" file.

--EOF--

(I've written the ConsoleLogger class just for fun...)

Everything is logged by our class correctly to a text file, also proxool-0.6 
messages.

On the countrary, proxool-0.8.3 logs messages using its Jdk14Logger; so I get 
my messages in a text file while proxool messages go to stdout.

Moreover, setting the org.logicalcobwebs.logging.Log System property
(with -Dorg.logicalcobwebs.logging.Log=com.tntstudio.log.ConsoleLogger)
produces the following stack trace:

I know it's silly to write a new SimpleLog as I did :(, but I think proxool's 
internal JCL prevents usage of any other org.apache.commons.logging.Log 
implementation.
