Yes.  Digester uses commons-logging under the covers
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/), which will choose Log4J by
default if it is visible in the classpath.  See the commons-logging
documentation for information on how to configure this.

Digester creates two different logger instances:

  org.apache.commons.digester.Digester.sax -- individual SAX events

  org.apache.commons.digester.Digester     -- everything else

If you set either or both of these to debug or trace level output, you'll
get a LOT of logging output.

Digester uses the apache commons-logging "wrapper". 

If the log4j jar file is in the classpath, and either a "log4j.xml" or
"log4j.properties" file is also in the classpath, then log4j will be
used as the "underlying" logging implementation.


See the commons-logging documentation for more details.
