Thanks for the quick response. Unfortunately, setting the "org.apache.commons.logging.Log" property will affect all classes trying to use the logging stuff. I can't force users of our code to use the log impl we have selected, and in fact, since our code is obfuscated, it wouldn't work for them anyway.
So, again, I don't want to set the class to use as the log impl, I just want to tell the Log Factory to just use the default impl without doing any discovery. Is there a way to do this? -----Original Message----- From: Nelson Minar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 12:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Turning off Discovery of Logging >What I want to do is have Axis not use discovery, but just use a >default implementation that is hardcoded, and cannot be modified by >user's own classpath's. Try this: java -Dorg.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Lo gger This is documented here: http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/integration-guide.html
