Can't do that without importing log4j or using reflection   :(

Would like to use log4j but may be restricted to commons-logging in places by other factors.

why not point commons-logging to log4j and use the log4j API for this?

Thanks Yair

That will work for log4j.

Don't see any equivalent in commons-logging .. any thoughts there anyone?

We use a transaction id which we put in MDC and print using the

 Maybe I'm missing something in the API but I don't see API support for
associating a unique (e.g. numeric) identifier to a message.

Unique message identifiers are useful in production systems to allow:

 * Easy message identification irrespective of localization
 * A key on which JIRA or knowledge base issues can be based
 * A key from which automated management actions can be triggered

The best I can think of is embedding such an identifier in a message,
e.g.
"[#2506] System has a headache".

How have others dealt with this need?

Are there any additional logging libraries that can help deal with this
issue or any other relevant works that may be of interest?

thanks for your input, David
