RE: jt400 & log4j?

A quick glance at the JT400 source indicates that all Trace messages in
JT400 are run through the ToolboxLogger class that wraps
java.util.logging.Logger.  You could write a replacement ToolboxLogger class
and replace the guts of the existing methods with references to log4j
instead of java.util.logging.Logger.  The class doesn't look that daunting
-- the methods seem pretty simple and almost all of the methods of
java.util.logging.Logger have a corresponding method in log4j.  The main
thing you'll have to do is remap the JT400 log levels to log4j log levels or
subclass Level to create your own log4j levels.

I don't know how to adapt java.util.logging to use log4j.

HTH,

Subject: jt400 & log4j?

Anyone know if it's possible to use log4j when logging jt400 
trace messages?

According to the Trace javadocs, I can use the 
java.util.logging mechanism by executing 
Logger.getLogger(Trace.LOGGER_NAME) ... but I would like to use log4j.

Alternatively, anyone know how to adapt java.util.logging to 
use log4j?

Thanks!
