RE: How to get log4j to work with commons-logging in web service app?

[Jacob Kjome <ho...@visi.com>]

The default package is no package at all.  For instance, the root of 
your jar file or WEB-INF/classes in your webapp.  You know when you 
write a simple HelloWorld class with a main() method in it.  You 
generally don't provide a "package" entry at the top of the 
class.  You just write the class.  The package it ends up being in is 
the "default" package.  Make sense?
