how to disable CXF logging

[Weihua JIANG <we...@gmail.com>]

We use CXF for JAX-WS. In our project, we handled exceptions thrown by
CXF (e.g. can't connect to server). So, the exceptions are expected
and correctly handled. We also use SLF4J to perform logging for our
project.

However, no matter the exceptions are handled or not, CXF will write
the stack trace to SLF4J log. This pollutes our log.

My question is: is it possible to disable CXF logging or redirect CXF
logging to another log file?

Thanks

If I'm setting ERROR mode to org.apache.cxf package i'm getting close_waits
in the backend and if i set it in INFO mode i dont see any close_waits, 

<logger name="org.apache.cxf" >
		<level value="ERROR" />	
</logger>

I want to disable cxf logging so that my log file size doesn't grow, how can
i achieve this ?

It's likely not logging to SLF4J.  Normally, we log directly to 
java.util.logging stuff.   Thus, you could configure the java.util.logging to 
drop all log entries in the org.apache.cxf catagory.
