commons-logging in Applet Errors

["Ostrowski, Steven" <st...@lmco.com>]

Hello,

	I searched the archive for posts regarding errors in commons-logging
when being used inside an applet. I was wondering if there is a workaround
for this, a way to disable it, or if there is a design decision why
commons-logging should not be used inside an applet.
	I'm trying to send a SOAPMessage by a standalone client applet to a
URLEndpoint (the web server). This seems like a valid thing to do in an
applet. I'm using WSDP 1.0. When I call getConnection from the
SOAPConnectionFactory, it uses the commons-logging API. My error stack trace
is shown below, with some unnecessary details left out:

Also, if this is the wrong mailing list, sorry for the mispost. What list
should I send this question to?

Thank You,
Steven Ostrowski
