    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-29?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12594151#comment-12594151 ] 

Elias Ross commented on LOGMGR-29:
----------------------------------

Sure.

We have legacy code that looks roughly like:

public class LogService extends org.apache.log4j.Logger {
   /** Logger Instance */
   private static LogServiceFactory factory_ = new LogServiceFactory();
   public static LogService getLogService(String name) {
      final Object logger = Logger.getLogger(name, factory_);
      return (LogService) logger;
   }

This code breaks with a class cast exception.

It deploys fine with my patch.
