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.
