Most APIs have got along for a while just using strings so I am not sure how that would be considered limiting. And if you want to use toString() then you should use toString(). However what would be the effect of debug( myHttpRequest ); If you are using object rendering from Log4j then it would be completely different result when using the Logging JSR or LogKit or any number of other logging toolkits. So in effect you have directly tied yourself to one implementation of facade which kinda defeats the purpose of having the facade in the first place no? -- Cheers, Pete ------------------------------------------------------------ I just got lost in thought...
