=== Example: Logging with Java's java.util.logging via Slf4j

It is possible to have the Jetty Server logging configured so that `java.util.logging` controls the output of logging events produced by Jetty.

This example demonstrates how to configuring Jetty for logging to `java.util.logging` via http://slf4j.org/manual.html[Slf4j] and the http://slf4j.org/manual.html#swapping[Slf4j binding layer for java.util.logging].
If you want to use the built-in native `JavaUtilLog` implementation, see #example-logging-java-util-logging-native .

A convenient replacement `logging` module has been created to bootstrap your `${jetty.base}` directory for logging with `java.util.logging`.

The replacement `logging.mod` performs a number of tasks.

.  `mybase` is a `${jetty.base}` directory
.  The jetty-distribution is unpacked (and untouched) into `/opt/jetty-dist/` and becomes the `${jetty.home}` directory for this demonstration.
.  The `curl` command downloads the replacement `logging.mod` and puts it into the `${jetty.base}/modules/` directory for use by `mybase` only.
.  The `start.jar --add-to-start=logging` command performs a number of steps to make the logging module available to the `${jetty.base}` configuration.
..  The `--module=logging` command is added to the `${jetty.base}/start.ini` configuration.
..  Required `${jetty.base}` directories are created: `${jetty.base}/logs` and `${jetty.base}/resources`.
..  Required libraries are downloaded (if not present already): slf4j-api, and slf4j-jdk14.
* The libraries are put in the `${jetty.base}/lib/logging/` directory.
..  Required configuration files are downloaded (if not present already): `jetty-logging.properties`, and `logging.properties`.
* The configuration files are put in the `${jetty.base}/resources/` directory.
..  Required `java.util.logging` initialization commands are downloaded (if not present already): `jetty-logging.xml`.
* The xml file is put in the `${jetty.base}/etc/` directory.

At this point the Jetty `mybase` is configured so that the Jetty server itself will log using `java.util.logging`, using the `java.util.logging` configuration found in `mybase/resources/logging.properties`.

The server classpath can be verified by using the `start.jar --list-config` command.

In essence, Jetty is now configured to emit its own logging events to slf4j, and slf4j itself is using the static log binder found in `slf4j-jdk14.jar`, making all Jetty + Slf4j + `java.util.logging` events emitted by the Jetty server go to `java.util.logging` for routing (to console, file, etc...).

If there any custom `java.util.logging` handlers to be used, put the implementation jar in the `${jetty.base}/lib/logging/` directory and reference them in the `${jetty.base}/resources/logging.properties` file.

____
[NOTE]
`java.util.logging` is configured via the `${jetty.base}/resources/logging.properties` file during a valid startup of Jetty.

This means that if there is any startup errors that occur before `java.util.logging` is configured, they will likely be lost and/or not routed through your configuration.

Other logging frameworks are more reliable in that they always initialize and configure on first use, unlike `java.util.logging`.

* While it is possible to configure `java.util.logging` sooner, even at JVM startup, the example demonstrated here does not show this technique.
For more information consult the official `java.util.logging.LogManager` javadoc http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/logging/LogManager.html[documentation from Oracle].
