http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31597 Incorrect test for availability of log4j Summary: Incorrect test for availability of log4j Product: Commons Version: 1.0.3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Logging AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Corrrected code from LogFactoryImpl is below. Log4j is only available if the the class loader that loads Log4JLogger can load Logger. The orginal test is incorrect when both of these conditions are met a.) the context loader can load Logger ( directly or not ), and b.) Log4jLogger is actually loaded by a parent of the loader that loads Logger. The failure of course occurs because Log4jLogger has a direct dep on Logger. protected boolean isLog4JAvailable() { try { /* <incorrect> */ //loadClass("org.apache.log4j.Logger"); //loadClass("org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger"); /* </incorrect> */ loadClass("org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger").getClassLoader().loadClass( "org.apache.log4j.Logger" ); return (true); } catch (Throwable t) { return (false); } } --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
