DESCRIPTION
Commons Logging is a wrapper library that acts as a conduit between an application and its logging apparatus. It does not provide a logging infrastructure of its own, other than a console writer, but acts as a channel which allows the plugging in of any logging API. Commons Discovery is another utility that facilitates the discovery of implementations of pluggable interfaces using the Service Provider Interface architecture (SPI). The underlying discovery pattern used in Commons Discovery is used in Commons Logging as well.
This module covers both these components with an emphasis on explaining the basics. Commons Logging is generally well understood, but poorly implemented. This module shows the best way to implement it by stepping through its discovery mechanism and shows how to tweak its settings. Commons Discovery is explained with the help of simple examples that show how it can be used to locate implementations of an interface.
