[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBLOGGING-7) searching for log4j even when jboss-logging-log4j.jar is not in classpath

searching for log4j even when jboss-logging-log4j.jar is not in classpath ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBLOGGING-7 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBLOGGING-7 Project: JBoss Logging Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Environment: JBoss AS trunk 5 CR2 Reporter: Aleksandar Kostadinov Assignee: Dimitris Andreadis See http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jboss-development/2008-October/012662.html for the discussion. Generally I don't have jboss-logging-log4j.jar in my classpath but I see an error that org/apache/log4j/Priority is not found. Application doesn't terminate but such an error is highly undesirable. I check to be sure it is not in classpath by Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(this.getClass().getClassLoader()); Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().loadClass("org.jboss.logging.log4j.Log4jLoggerPlugin"); It throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.logging.log4j.Log4jLoggerPlugin I don't need any logging and need to have logging somehow disabled or silent in the most non-disruptive way. I mean I don't want to disable it with my code if the underlying application uses it but I don't want error messages in case the rest of the application doesn't know about jboss-logging at all.
