Luke Lu commented on THRIFT-416:
--------------------------------

I recommend that we use slf4j (http://www.slf4j.org/) and let people have 
choices of logging backends. Solr folks debated and switched to slf4j and 
people seem to be happy with it.

> java.util.logging eats exceptions without warning

> Using java.util.logging has two related problems.
> One is that virtually no java project in the wild uses it.  Everyone uses the 
> more advanced log4j.
> Two is that unlike log4j, java.util.logging does not warn you when it is 
> swallowing errors because it has not been configured.
> So thrift exceptions vanish without a trace which is bad.
> Here is a patch to switch to log4j.
