Hi,
Is there anyway that I could prevent the call to getInstance of Category
in every action class.
So I can have instance of Category in base action class and every other
class would extend from it.
public class baseAction extends Action {
static Category cat =
Category.getInstance(loginAction.class.getName());}
this way I can just use this cat instance in all other action class which
extends from this base...
public class logonAction extends baseAction{
and I can put cat.debug etc. here
but the problem is that it would always print the base class name in the
log.
I was wondering if it is required to have Category as static bcoz
otherwise I could pass the instance name of every classs instance to it..

I currently use Log4j with NDC enabled combined with struts.
Here is how I use it:
- Run PropertyConfigurator from a startup servlet
- import org.apache.log4j.Category in your code
- set reference to log4j in your code
public class loginAction extends Action {
static Category cat = Category.getInstance(loginAction.class.getName());
....
...
.
.
and in the body just call it:
if ( cat.isDebugEnabled() )
cat.debug("Attempting login with session: " + sessionid);
I hope that helps. I wish all products were as easy as log4j to integrate.
-Mark
