Either:
   you patch the apache class yourself or submit a bug to its developers (or 
both)
Or:
   you implement a workaround:
      - exclude the path of your own class (like it is seen by the apache 
getClass():
          <logger name="my.company.HttpClient" additivity="false">
              <level value="off"/>
          </logger>
      - instantiate your own logger with an artificial addendum in the name:   
          private final static Log log = LogFactory.getLog( 
"my.company.reallyMy.HttpClient" );
          and configure it like:
          <logger name="my.company.reallyMy.HttpClient">
              <level value="debug"/>
          </logger>
   remember: the name of the logger is just a name. Using the package/Classname 
is just a convention and not a must.

Or - of course - both.

Betreff: Re: AW: Path exclusion for logs


Turns out u were right, the parent class(AbstractHttpClient) instantiates the 
log like this:
private final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());

Also turns out that this is a commons.logging logger and not a log4j as i 
thought Also it looks like it's private so i can't override it, any ideas?
