Class InternalLoggerFactory

java.lang.Object

org.jboss.netty.logging.InternalLoggerFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:

CommonsLoggerFactory, JBossLoggerFactory, JdkLoggerFactory, Log4JLoggerFactory, OsgiLoggerFactory, Slf4JLoggerFactory

public abstract class InternalLoggerFactory
extends Object

Creates an InternalLogger or changes the default factory implementation. This factory allows you to choose what logging framework Netty should use. The default factory is JdkLoggerFactory. You can change it to your preferred logging framework before other Netty classes are loaded:

 InternalLoggerFactory.setDefaultFactory(new Log4JLoggerFactory());
 

Please note that the new default factory is effective only for the classes which were loaded after the default factory is changed. Therefore, setDefaultFactory(InternalLoggerFactory) should be called as early as possible and shouldn't be called more than once.
