Class Log4JHierarchyInit

java.lang.Object

org.alfresco.repo.admin.Log4JHierarchyInit

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware

public class Log4JHierarchyInit
extends java.lang.Object
implements org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware

Initialises Log4j's HierarchyDynamicMBean (refer to core-services-context.xml) and any overriding log4.properties files. The actual implementation uses introspection to avoid any hard-coded references to Log4J classes. If Log4J is not present, this class will do nothing.

Alfresco modules can provide their own log4j.properties file, which augments/overrides the global log4j.properties within the Alfresco webapp. Within the module's source tree, suppose you create:

      config/alfresco/module/{module.id}/log4j.properties
 

At deployment time, this log4j.properties file will be placed in:

      WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/module/{module.id}/log4j.properties
 

Where {module.id} is whatever value is set within the AMP's module.properties file. For details, see: Developing an Alfresco Module

For example, if {module.id} is "org.alfresco.module.avmCompare", then within your source code you'll have:

 config / alfresco / module / org.alfresco.module.avmCompare / log4j.properties
 

This would be deployed to:

 WEB - INF / classes / alfresco / module / org.alfresco.module.avmCompare / log4j.properties
