Improve logging
---------------
Key: HADOOP-1078
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1078
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Philippe Gassmann
Loggers in hadoop are created using LogFactory.getLog("some package styled
things");
This is very confusing since the string specified in getLog() sometime is the
class name sometime not. (eg : the class org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Task contains
a logger created by LogFactory.getLog("org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskRunner");
which is very confusing)
I think that logger should be always created using
LogFactory.getLog(MyClass.class); and that if a class needs a logger, then a
specific logger must be crated for that class (ie: loggers are private).
