True. My approach is tuned for 2 things,
- utilizing JDK 1.4 logging
- unrolling the Tomcat stack in a way to get to "interesting bits of
stack"
You are right that this isn't something everyone would want. If you are
trying to get Tomcat to log though JDK 1.4, then my approach might be
useful.
The stack unrolling is helpful, IMHO, because it helps to identify which
class and method called the logger.
I would like to have used commons-logging to get to JDK1.4's backend.
Alas commons-logging doesn't support arbitrary stack unrolling
methods... And Tomcat has a lot of log wrappers....
$ cd jakarta-tomcat-4.0
$ grep -i 'log(' `find . -name *.java `|grep void|cut -f1
-d:|sort|uniq|wc -l
65
To migrate to commons-logging, it looks like at least 65 classes need to
be adjusted. I presume this will take awhile. Using my approach is a
quick stop gap. Perhaps Tomcat 5 will embrace the migration to
commons-logging.
