 <h3>1.  INTRODUCTION</h3>


 <p> The commons-logging package provides a simple, component
 oriented interface (<code>org.apache.commons.logging.Log</code>) together with wrappers for
 logging systems. The user can choose at runtime
 which system they want to use.
 In addition, a small number of basic implementations are provided
 to allow users to use the package standalone.
 </p>

 <p>commons-logging was heavily influenced by Avalon's Logkit and Log4J.  The commons-logging
 abstraction is meant to minimize the differences between the two, and to allow a
 developer to not tie himself to a particular logging implementation.
 </p>

 <p>
 The package does :
 <ul>
 <li>Have an API which should be as simple to use as possible</li>
 <li>Provide support for Avalon's Logkit</li>
 <li>Provide support for JDK 1.4 logging</li>
 <li>Provide support for Log4J</li>
 <li>Provide support for Avalon-Framework's Logger</li>
 <li>Provide support for <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/lumberjack/">
     LumberJack</a> logger</li>
 <li>Provide pluggable support for other logging APIs</li>
 <li>Provide a simple System.out logger</li>
 </ul>
 </p>

 <p>
 Non-goals:
 <ul>
 <li>This package will not perform logging itself, except at the most basic
     level.</li>
 <li>We do not seek to become a "standard" API.</li>
 </ul>
 </p>


 <a name="Dependencies"></a>
 <h3>2.  DEPENDENCIES</h3>

 <p>The <em>Logging</em> component is dependent upon the following external
 components for compilation:</p>
 <ul>
 <li><a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se">Java Development Kit</a>
     (Version 1.2 or later)</li>
 <li><a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/">Apache Logging Log4j</a>
     (Optional, Version 1.2.6 or later)</li>
 <li><a href="http://avalon.apache.org/">Apache Avalon
     LogKit</a> (Optional, Version 1.0.1 or later)</li>
 <li><a href="http://avalon.apache.org/">Apache Avalon
     Framework</a> (Optional, Version 4.0 or later)</li>
 <li><a href="http://projects.sourceforge.net/lumberjack/">LumberJack</a></li>
 <li><a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se">Java Development Kit</a> (Version 1.4
     or later) logging APIs (Optional)</li>
 </ul>

 <p> Of course, the user must ensure that any logging systems that they wish
 to use are present in the classpath when they use this component. </p>
