Thanks Remko for reply, I think that's how I do it.
Please see below the way I use it. I am on log4j2 and I have log4j-api,
log4j-core and log4j-web jars in the lib directory of my web app.
I import these 2 packages
import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
Create a static instance
static final Logger log = LogManager.getLogger(myclass.class.getName());
then do use it in class file
catch (Exception ex) {
log.error("Got the exception", ex);
}
I was under impression that this should log the complete trace, but its not.
Any ideas as what I am missing ?
