It would seem to me that Vedran is right that a webapp that uses commons-logging
should not need to make direct calls to log4j on shutdown (this is what you were
suggesting, Robert?)

However as Robert states, the solution needs care; if two webapps are using
log4j and one of them is reloaded it would be very unpleasant if the other
webapp suddenly had its logging implementation shut down. So before adding a
call to LogManager.shutdown in log4j, it would be wise to determine whether this
would happen or not.

I would initially assume that log4j.jar would be deployed in the webapp-specific
libraries. As such, a separate copy should exist within each webapp (different
classloaders used) and therefore calling shutdown on one would *not* affect the
other. However I'm no expert on containers; I know that in some cases containers
want to provide the underlying logging implementation so that logging is
centralised for all webapps. If the container chooses log4j as its centralised
logging implementation, then what?
