[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBLOGGING-57) Logic for selecting a provider is too fragile

Logic for selecting a provider is too fragile --------------------------------------------- Key: JBLOGGING-57 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBLOGGING-57 Project: JBoss Logging Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 3.0.0.Beta4-jboss-logging Reporter: Dan Allen Assignee: David Lloyd Fix For: 3.0.0.Beta5-jboss-logging The logic used to select the logging provider is too fragile. It should never throw an exception while selecting a provider, because JDK logging is guaranteed to be available and should be the fallback choice. When JBoss Logging fails to select a provider, it causes deployment to fail, which violates my rule #1 of a logging framework (don't fail a build because of a failure to setup logging). The fragile logic is the reason we get JBLOGGING-47. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
