[jira] Commented: (VELTOOLS-68) VelocityViewServlet has hard coded ServletLogger

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELTOOLS-68?page=comments#action_12447009 ] 
            
Nathan Bubna commented on VELTOOLS-68:
--------------------------------------

Integration w/commons-logging used to be trivial until Tomcat decided to use c-l as a full logging provider instead of a wrapper. :(

Adding the ServletLogger to the search path sounds good, however, there is the question of where in the priority it should be.  i don't necessarily think it should be the last option.

i do have LogChute implementations for VelocityTools on the wiki (http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-velocity/VelocityTools), but i've held off adding them to Veltools 1.3-dev because i want to be free to release 1.3 before Velocity 1.5 comes out.  If we get Vel 1.5 out before i roll Veltools 1.3, then i'll add the LogChutes in.

> VelocityViewServlet configures the Velocity engine to use the ServletLogger (~line 323). Integration of the servlet into applications that use other logging systems (e.g. log4j / commons-logging) is very hard because of that.
> - VVS should honor the logging setttings in velocity.properties (e.g. for explicit jdk logging)
> - It should add the ServletLogger to the log engine search path and only use it if no other logger was found (log4j / avalon etc.)
> - The ServletLogger class implements the deprecated LogSystem. VelocityTools should provide a LogChute implementation of the SrevletLogger.
