Log4j.xml in client banks

I have some jar files that will be distributed among clients that use log4j for logging. My question is whether to include the log4j.xml configuration in a jar file or provide a client if they want to log?

My feeling is to leave the client jars log4j.xml out configuration file since the apar jar files all have log4j logging but sans log4j.xml.

Yes, leave it. This is extremely frustrating when your log4j configuration file is ignored because one of the 60 third-party libraries in your application contains its own.

The good thing about log4j in your case is that your bank really should not worry about it. The main use case for log4j is:

  • Get log object for current class
  • Call one of the methods of this logger, for example debug("some message");
