| |
| Apache Commons Logging Package 1.1.1 Release Notes |
| -------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| This release of Apache Commons Logging is a maintenance release, with just a |
| couple of fixes for using Commons Logging under restrictive security policies. |
| |
| All core classes were compiled with Maven using a 1.4.x JDK, with target set |
| to 1.1 and source set to 1.2. Commons Logging may work on some |
| augmented 1.1 series JREs but it is recommended that those wish to run |
| on 1.1 JREs download the source and create a custom implementation by |
| stripping out all the complex classloader management code. |
| |
| For further details, please see the Apache Commons Logging website: |
| http://commons.apache.org/logging/ |
| |
| For the very latest news, hints, FAQs etc. please see the |
| Apache Commons Logging wiki site: |
| http://wiki.apache.org/commons/Logging |
| |
| Note that some containers (some versions of Apache Tomcat and JBoss in |
| particular) prevent webapps, ejbs, etc from overriding the commons-logging |
| implementation provided by the container. This means that bundling this |
| updated implementation with a deployed application may not have any effect. |
| See the commons-logging site and/or the wiki for more information. |
| |
| New Features Since 1.1.0 |
| ------------------------ |
| |
| None. |
| |
| Incompatibilities |
| ----------------- |
| |
| The protected method LogFactory.getContextClassLoader has been reverted to pre-1.1 |
| behaviour. In earlier releases, this method did not use an AccessController when |
| obtaining the context classloader. In version 1.1 it did. In this release, it has |
| reverted to not using an AccessController; any user-level code that needs to obtain |
| a context classloader should itself create an AccessController, and call the |
| LogFactory.getContextClassLoader method via the doPrivileged method. This fixes a |
| potential security issue, where untrusted code could get access to the context |
| classloader if a signed Commons Logging library was in the classpath. |
| |
| Dependencies |
| ------------ |
| |
| Commons Logging has no mandatory dependencies. |
| |
| Java 1.2 and later are supported. It may be possible to use this release with |
| java 1.1 but this has not been tested; the unit tests certainly don't run on |
| that version. |
| |
| Distributed Jar Files |
| --------------------- |
| |
| File commons-logging-nn.jar is the one most people will want. It provides the |
| base implementation and adapters to a number of popular logging libraries. |
| |
| File commons-logging-adapters-nn.jar includes only the adapters to various |
| concrete logging libraries. When commons-logging-nn.jar or |
| commons-logging-api-nn.jar is deployed in a container classpath, then this |
| adapters-only jar file should be deployed in the webapp, not the complete Commons |
| Logging distribution. This ensures that the core Log/LogFactory classes are only |
| deployed via one classloader, thus avoiding "Log4JLogger does not implement Log" |
| and similar problems. |
| |
| File commons-logging-api-nn.jar provides minimal adapters to external logging |
| libraries, just the internally implemented SimpleLog and NoOpLog classes |
| plus Jdk14Logger (which is currently required by Apache Tomcat). |
| |
| The file commons-logging-api-nn.jar may be used as a declared dependency for |
| projects that care about "transitive dependencies" and can't handle jar files |
| such as commons-logging-nn.jar which have "optional" dependencies depending on |
| how they are used. In addition, this jar file can be useful for "rebundlers" of |
| Commons Logging who recompile the source-code but who may not be able to |
| recompile against the full set of supported adapters; such projects should be |
| able to at least recreate an equivalent of this jar file. |
| |
| General Notes |
| ------------- |
| |
| The Apache Commons project has migrated to the Subversion version control system |
| (previously, CVS was used). There should be no effect on users of the Commons |
| Logging library, but obviously the process of examining the latest source code, |
| and of creating patches for Commons Logging has now changed. Please see the |
| Apache Commons website for details (http://commons.apache.org/). |
| |
| The Apache Commons project has now moved to using the Apache JIRA installation |
| as its bugtracking system (formerly, the Apache Bugzilla installation was used). |
| |
| All source files for this release have been updated to reflect the new Apache |
| Software Foundation licensing rules. The terms and conditions are unaltered; |
| this merely affects how those are presented in the source files. See |
| http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html |
| |
| This release can be built/tested with Maven 2.0.x as well as Ant. Note that |
| building with Maven 1.x is no longer supported. The files used to build Commons |
| Logging with Maven 1.x will be removed in a future version of Commons Logging. |
| |
| Bugs Fixed |
| ---------- |
| |
| * LOGGING-106: Commons Logging 1.1 was completely unusable under a security |
| policy that prevented access to system properties. Even signing/authorising |
| the Commons Logging library was not sufficient. This has been fixed by (a) |
| catching SecurityException and falling back to a sensible default, and (b) |
| using AccessController so Commons Logging can be granted privileges without |
| needing the caller to have them too. |
| |
| * LOGGING-107: Commons Logging 1.1 auto-discovery failed under a security |
| policy that prevented calls to ClassLoader.getParent. Signing/authorising the |
| Commons Logging library was not sufficient as an AccessController was not used. |
| This has been fixed by catching SecurityException and using an AccessController. |
| |
| * LOGGING-111, LOGGING-114: Show the contents of chained exceptions, to make |
| debugging easier, in particular when using Commons Logging together with Log4J. |
| |
| * LOGGING-113: pom.xml in maven repository does not list dependencies as optional. |
| |
| * LOGGING-115: NPE thrown due to exception message logging. |
| |
| * LOGGING-117: Unit tests fail on linux with java16. |
| |
| * LOGGING-118: Generate source and binary archives. |
| |
| * MEV-392 (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-392) |
| As Commons Logging didn't provide a Maven2 pom.xml file, one was helpfully |
| created by people not involved with the commons-logging project and published |
| to the standard maven repositories. Unfortunately this pom declared normal |
| dependencies on all the logging libraries that are supported by the core |
| Commons Logging distribution, meaning they all get pulled into a project that |
| declares a dependency on Commons Logging 1.1. This release now provides an |
| "official" pom.xml which declares these dependencies as optional so they aren't |
| automatically included in projects that depend on Commons Logging 1.1.1. |
| |
| * (no bug#): Fix thread-safety bug (SimpleDateFormat.format is not thread-safe). |
| Thanks to Martin Wilson of bright-interactive for the bug report. |
| |
| * (no bug#): Security issue regarding access to context classloader (see |
| incompatibilities section above). |

| Apache Commons Logging 1.0.4 Release Notes |
| ------------------------------------------ |
| |
| This document contains the release notes for this version of the Commons |
| Logging package. It is primarily a service release for downstream users. |
| The main emphasis maintenance and code cleanup release, |
| with some new features including support for both the old 1.2.x series |
| of Log4J releases and the new 1.3.x series of releases. |
| |
| The following paragraphs document changes since the previous release |
| (version 1.0.3). The documentation (userguide and javadoc) |
| has also been improved. |
| |
| New Features |
| ------------ |
| |
| [ALL FILES] This version of Commons Logging is released under the |
| Apache License (Version 2.0). All source files have been |
| modified to reflect this. |
| |
| [maven.xml] Added beginnings of a Maven-based build, primarily for the |
| purpose of creating documentation consistent with Mavenized |
| commons projects. The official build system for the software |
| is still the Ant "build.xml" file. |
| |
| [AvalonLogger] Added AvalonLogger, which wraps the logger used by the |
| Avalon framework. As with other implementations, this |
| is compiled only if the appropriate dependencies are |
| satisfied. |
| |
| [Jdk13LumberjackLogger] |
| Added Jdk13LumberjackLogger, which wraps the implementation |
| of the JSR-47 logging APIs (for JDKs before 1.4) provided |
| by the SourceForge "lumberjack" project. |
| <http://sourceforge.net/projects/lumberjack/> |
| |
| [LogFactoryImpl] If an InvocationTargetException is returned during the |
| creation of a new Log instance, unwrap the underlying |
| cause and pass it in to the LogConfigurationException |
| constructor. This will make the actual cause of the |
| problem easier to diagnose. |
| |
| [LogFactoryImpl] If the isAssignableFrom() test fails because there is more |
| than one instance of org.apache.commons.logging.Log visible |
| in the class loader hierarchy, make the exception message |
| that is reported explicitly state this, rather than the |
| potentially misleading claim that an implementation class |
| does not implement Log. |
| |
| [Log4JLogger] Changes to allow this logger to support both the existing 1.2.x |
| series of releases and also the upcoming 1.3.x series of Log4J |
| releases. |
| |
| [SimpleLog] Added support for setting date-time format. |
| |
| Bug Fixes |
| --------- |
| |
| [MANIFEST.MF] Remove reference to Log4J from the manifest classpath. |
| |
| [LogConfigurationException] |
| Include root cause in the text of the message, if present. |
| |
| [LogFactory] Improve usability of error messages reporting |
| configuration problems. |
| |
| [JDK14Logger] Implement Serializable, remove "final" declaration for |
| easy subclassing. |
| |
| [Log4JLogger] Implement Serializable, remove "final" declaration for |
| easy subclassing. |
| |
| [NoOpLogger] Implement Serializable, remove "final" declaration for |
| easy subclassing. |
| |
| [SimpleLog] Make SimpleLog more friendly to the security manager |
| in an applet environment, by swallowing any security |
| exceptions when looking up system properties that are |
| not accessible. |
| |
| Deprecations |
| ------------ |
| |
| (These are carried forward from Version 1.0.3) |
| |
| [LogSource] Previously deprecated, replaced by LogFactory. |
| |
| [Log4jFactory] A proxy instance of this class was transparently created |
| when Log4J logging was selected, yet it serves no useful |
| purpose. The class is now deprecated, and the proxy |
| instance is no longer created. |
| |
| [Log4JCategoryLog] This class has been replaced by Log4JLogger, which |
| corresponds to the availability of the new Logger class |
| in Log4J 1.2 and later. |
| |

| |
| Apache Commons Logging 1.0.3 Release Notes |
| ------------------------------------------ |
| |
| This document contains the release notes for this version of the Commons |
| Logging package. It is primarily a maintenance and code cleanup release, |
| with minimal new features. |
| |
| The following paragraphs document changes since the previous release |
| (version 1.0.2). |
| |
| New Features |
| ------------ |
| |
| [build.xml] Refined build process to correctly avoid compiling classes |
| when dependencies are not available, and to avoid name |
| clashes over Ant properties used in different ways. |
| |
| [unit tests] Added new suites of tests for the Log4J and JDK 1.4 |
| logging implementations, including tests with multiple |
| class loaders that closely simulate the scenario of using |
| commons-logging in a servlet container. |
| |
| [documentation] Overall cleanup and correction of the JavaDoc documentation |
| to correctly reflect the current behavior. In particular, |
| the default logging implementation (selected if nothing |
| else is configured) is now SimpleLog, not NoOpLog. |
| |
| [LogFactory] Add a static release(ClassLoader) method that allows, |
| for example, a webapp to clean up all c-l references |
| prior to being shut down. |
| |
| Bug Fixes |
| --------- |
| |
| [build.xml] Correct the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF that was embedded in the |
| generated JAR files to properly contain the version number. |
| |
| [LogFactory] Fix security violations on several ClassLoader method |
| invocations. |
| |
| [SimpleLog] Dump stack trace through logger, instead of directly to |
| System.out, to preserve output sequence. |
| |
| [SimpleLog] Avoid a security exception if system properties cannot be |
| read (such as in an applet). |
| |
| [Bugzilla 10825] NullPointerException when Logger.getClassLoader() |
| returns null. |
| |
| [Bugzilla 13118] Correct detection of JDK 1.4 that was mis-identifying on a |
| scenario where a JDK 1.3 implementation included an |
| implementation of JSR-47 logging. |
| |
| [Bugzilla 13157] Incorrect selection of Log4J in a servlet container. |
| |
| [Bugzilla 13201] Log4JLogger should not attempt to auto-configure |
| appenders; this is out of scope for commons-logging. |
| |
| [Bugzilla 17561] Attempts to override Log4J configuration. |
| |
| [Bugzilla 17894] Unable to configure commons-logging SimpleLog for a webapp. |
| |
| [Bugzilla 18184] Jdk14Logger should not waste the effort to create a |
| Throwable (to extract calling class and method) if the |
| message is not going to be logged anyway. |
| |
| |
| Deprecations |
| ------------ |
| |
| [LogSource] Previously deprecated, replaced by LogFactory. |
| |
| [Log4jFactory] A proxy instance of this class was transparently created |
| when Log4J logging was selected, yet it serves no useful |
| purpose. The class is now deprecated, and the proxy |
| instance is no longer created. |
| |
| [Log4JCategoryLog] This class has been replaced by Log4JLogger, which |
| corresponds to the availability of the new Logger class |
| in Log4J 1.2 and later. |

| |
| Apache Commons Logging Package 1.0 Release Notes |
| ------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| This document contains the release notes for this version of the Commons |
| Logging package. This is the first release of commons-logging. |
| |
| New Features |
| ------------ |
| |
| * commons-logging implements an abstraction between logging and the logging |
| implementation being used. You can currently use Avalon's logkit, Log4J, |
| JDK 1.4's logging, or nothing at all. It is up to you. |
