[cross-project-issues-dev] Logging facility

[Thomas Hallgren <thomas@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,
In Buckminster, we use log4j in a (sort of) brute-force manner. I say 
brute-force because we don't go through any OSGi service. The Corona 
project seems to have a more elaborated approach (see: 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Corona_Logging#Corona_Logging_Configuration). 
I'd like Buckminster to do something similar but I don't want to 
introduce a dependency to the Corona project as such.

Let's assume that several projects would like to use log4j through OSGi, 
just like Corona does, what would be the best approach to make that 
happen? Would it be to convince someone to include it in the core 
platform, or should a new technology project be started that was 
concentrating on logging only?

Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
