Hi All, Recently there was a discussion on the MyFaces list regarding the use of the following pattern with commons logging classes: private static Log log = LogFactory.getLog(Foo.class)
It was pointed out that the use of static here is a really bad idea for any code that may be deployed via a shared classloader in a container. Craig McClanahan indicated that this (anti-)pattern was in use in struts code and that the issue should be pointed out here. I haven't personally checked whether this usage *is* present in the current struts codebase. Neither do I know whether struts jarfiles are expected to be deployed in shared classpaths (it's definitely true for MyFaces). More information on this issue can be found here: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/Logging/StaticLog Regards, Simon (commons-logging committer) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
