nThe primary weakness of JDK Logging over
Log4J is that the JDKs
configuration file isn't as
robust, but it does provide
a mechanism to punt down in to classes to do arbitrary work rather than having a more rich
configuration file
format
nProperty "config". This property is intended to allow arbitrary configuration code to be run. The
property defines a
whitespace separated list of class names. A new instance will be created for each named
class. The default
constructor of each class may execute arbitrary code to update the logging configuration,
such as setting logger
levels, adding handlers, adding filters, etc
