We could use the LogUtils class from celtix which is using the
jdk1.5 logging.
I think there was strong opposition against JDK logging because
people love log4j. I think the consensus was to define our own logger
interface and inject that in ORB.init().
What are our target JDK versions again? Do we start w/ JDK14 or
JDK13? I am of the opinion that we use the vanilla logger for JDK14
or, if we start w/ JDK13, log4j. In either case I do not see the need
for a specialized logger interface that's injected; I'm interested in
hearing opinion on this.
JDK 1.3 will be end-of-lifed by Sun this summer, so I think we should
ignore it.
Re logging, where I work we use log4j on JDK 1.4. I think that is a
pretty common scenario, and using vanilla j.u.logging will not integrate
well with the rest of our apps. If you want to support both you either
have to use some logger abstraction, and a logger interface is the best
abstraction I can come up with.
Re minimum JDK: I would like to also bring JDK 1.5 into the picture, but
maybe that should go into another thread.
