logging libraries
I have a bit of a disagreement with a fellow developer at work on logging libraries.
He wanted to introduce use of Commons Logging for our current development, however I've kept on using Log4j as we've used on several previous projects. My opinion is that Commons Logging suffers from being a 'lowest common denominator', and complicates matters by introducing extra configuration and indirection.
What do you think? Have you used either or both on your projects?
(I'm not asking people to resolve our dispute, by the way, just interested in opinions).
