veryverbose (-vv)
I'm trying to debug some of my changes for G-1526 but am not getting the
level of trace information I would expect. Is the VERYVERBOSE startup
option (-vv) still the best option to use to get the most trace/debug
output ?? Thanks.

Hey Tim you may want to check out this wiki page for coding standards
and best practices. It also has some tips on logging:
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/coding-standards.html
Best wishes,
Paul

Thanks for the info David and Jason, I already assigned myself the
G-1404 jira related to some logging problems, so I'll use that to try to
clean this up. I've noticed also a lot of inconsistencies in how logging
is and isn't used. I also hope that there are coding standards and/or
best practices that should be adhered to. Thanks.

Um, this seems very fishy...

But, the logging config in G is a bit temperamental as I found when I
was trying to get logging for tests to work as it should when using
log4j configuration.
There is some code in geronimo-kernel which will insert Log4j
configuration, which negates some of the configuration that should be
picked up from log4j.properties. It may be worth spending a bit of
time to clean that up, maybe removing the custom injection of logging
objects, and using a separate log4j-debug.properties or something
along those lines to allow -v or -vv to install the desired logging
config.

Not sure how relevant this is but in the server-log4j.properties it
looks like the Threshold values are not consistent. The first one is
threshold and the others are Threshold. I think the first one is
incorrect. I was going to play with this today but not sure when.
If someone else has time before me please do.

I think there is something strange going on with log4j
configuration. To get a reasonable level of coverage in any log
(console or file) I have to remove/comment out the line
log4j.logger.org.apache.geronimo.gbean.runtime.GBeanSingleReference=DEBU
G
In my limited experimentation that line prevents logging just about
anything else at debug (and possibly info) no matter what the
"global" settings are.
thanks
