[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-2835) Setting org.hibernate.type logging to debug produces no logging

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2835?page=c... ] bartleby42 commented on HHH-2835: --------------------------------- When debugging org.hibernate.type.NullableType, I found the level of the logger "org.hibernate.type" was always INFO, cached or uncached, and regardless of the log4j configuration. It seems the level is altered programmatically somewhere after configuration. My (experimental) workaround is to alter it back again according to the configuration of a helper logger. This can be accomplished without replacing or patching any libraries involved. Unfortunately, the code depends on log4j and org.apache.commons.logging.impl, which may not be a problem in temporary debugging code: (1) The snippet to copy the level: Log workaroundLog = LogFactory.getLog("org.hibernate.type.workaround"); Log typeLog = LogFactory.getLog("org.hibernate.type"); if (workaroundLog instanceof org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger && typeLog instanceof org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger){ org.apache.log4j.Logger log4jWorkaroundLogger = (org.apache.log4j.Logger)((org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger)workaroundLog) .getLogger(); org.apache.log4j.Logger log4jTypeLogger = (org.apache.log4j.Logger)((org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger)typeLog) .getLogger(); log4jTypeLogger.setLevel(log4jWorkaroundLogger.getLevel()); } (2) Place this code after log4j is configured, but before the class org.hibernate.type.NullableType is loaded. In our Tomcat and Spring environment, it was sufficient to make the LocalSessionFactoryBean depend on a helper bean with the above code in its constructor: <bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean" depends-on="hibernate-type-logging-workaround"> (3) Configure the logger "org.hibernate.type.workaround" instead of "org.hibernate.type" -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
