Java日志学习二:Apache Commons Logging (JCL)源码

一.Apache Commons Logging

     http://zy19982004.iteye.com/blog/1867448里提到了commons-logging的工作方式,本文将看下代码怎么实现这一工作方式。

 

二.Apache Commons Logging类结构

Java日志学习二:Apache Commons Logging (JCL)源码

     就这么简单,一个接口包,一个实现包。

 

三.类说明

  1. Log:A simple logging interface abstracting logging APIs,和JDBC API是一个性质的东西
  2. Level。对六种日志级别的操作,官网建议我们这样用:
    http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-logging/guide.html 写道
    It is important to ensure that log message are appropriate in content and severity. The following guidelines are suggested:
    fatal - Severe errors that cause premature termination. Expect these to be immediately visible on a status console. See also Internationalization.
    error - Other runtime errors or unexpected conditions. Expect these to be immediately visible on a status console. See also Internationalization.
    warn - Use of deprecated APIs, poor use of API, 'almost' errors, other runtime situations that are undesirable or unexpected, but not necessarily "wrong". Expect these to be immediately visible on a status console. See also Internationalization.
    info - Interesting runtime events (startup/shutdown). Expect these to be immediately visible on a console, so be conservative and keep to a minimum. See also Internationalization.
    debug - detailed information on the flow through the system. Expect these to be written to logs only.
    trace - more detailed information. Expect these to be written to logs only.
     
  3. LogFactory:抽闲类,获得Log类。 getFactory()先从缓存里取LogFactory,取不到再去找,然后放进缓存。其中找的这段代码如下
    public static final String FACTORY_PROPERTY = "org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory"
    protected static final String SERVICE_ID = "META-INF/services/org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory"
    public static final String FACTORY_PROPERTIES = "commons-logging.properties"
    public static final String FACTORY_DEFAULT = "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl"
    
    public static LogFactory getFactory() throws LogConfigurationException {
    	//1.系统环境变量里是否定义了LogFactory实现类,System.getProperty(FACTORY_PROPERTY)
    	//2.利用JDK1.3 开始提供的service 发现机制,会扫描classpah 下的SERVICE_ID文件,若找到则装载里面的配置,使用里面的配置
    	//3.Classpath下有FACTORY_PROPERTIES文件的话,看此properties里有无定义FACTORY_PROPERTY
    	//4.如果123找不到LogFactory实现类,使用FACTORY_DEFAULT
    }
     
     public abstract Log getInstance(String name)
            throws LogConfigurationException;
    public abstract Log getInstance(Class clazz)
            throws LogConfigurationException;
    
    public static Log getLog(String name)
            throws LogConfigurationException {
            return (getFactory().getInstance(name));
        }
    
    public static Log getLog(Class clazz)
            throws LogConfigurationException {
            return (getFactory().getInstance(clazz));
        }
    
      
  4. LogFactoryImpl,实现LogFactory,真正产生Log类的地方。首先从缓存里取Log,取不到就按照http://zy19982004.iteye.com/blog/1867448 中的顺序加载Log类。(i<classesToDiscover.length) && (result == null)就是这里。
    public Log getInstance(Class clazz) throws LogConfigurationException {
            return (getInstance(clazz.getName()));
        }
    
    public Log getInstance(String name) throws LogConfigurationException {
            Log instance = (Log) instances.get(name);
            if (instance == null) {
                instance = newInstance(name);
                instances.put(name, instance);
            }
            return (instance);
        }
    
    private static final String[] classesToDiscover = {
                "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger",
                "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger",
                "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk13LumberjackLogger",
                "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog"
        };
    
    
    private Log discoverLogImplementation(String logCategory)
        throws LogConfigurationException
        {
            // See if the user specified the Log implementation to use
            //1).首先在classpath下寻找自己的配置文件commons-logging.properties,如果找到,则使用其中定义的Log实现类;
    
    //2) 如果找不到commons-logging.properties文件,则在查找是否已定义系统环境变量org.apache.commons.logging.Log,找到则使用其定义的Log实现类;
    
            String specifiedLogClassName = findUserSpecifiedLogClassName();
    
            if (specifiedLogClassName != null) {
                            result = createLogFromClass(specifiedLogClassName,
                                            logCategory,
                                            true);
                return result;
            }
            //3) 否则,查看classpath中是否有Log4j的包,如果发现,则自动使用Log4j作为日志实现类;
    
    //4) 否则,使用JDK自身的日志实现类(JDK1.4以后才有日志实现类);
    
    //5) 否则,使用commons-logging自己提供的一个简单的日志实现类SimpleLog;
    
                  for(int i=0; (i<classesToDiscover.length) && (result == null); ++i) {
                result = createLogFromClass(classesToDiscover[i], logCategory, true);
            }
            
                    return result; 
    
    createLogFromClass方法使用Class.forName(logAdapterClassName, true, currentCL),看classpath下是否有此logAdapterClassName 
  5. Log4JLogger:包装了org.apache.log4j.Logger。
  6. Jdk14Logger:包装了JDK1.4的java.util.logging.Logger。
  7. Jdk13LumberjackLogger:包装了JDK1.3及以前版本的java.util.logging.Logger。
  8. SimpleLog:自己实现的一个简单日志。
  9. NoOpLog:不记录日志,都是空方法。Java日志学习二:Apache Commons Logging (JCL)源码

 

四.Log实现类

 Java日志学习二:Apache Commons Logging (JCL)源码

 

五.commons-logging-api.jar

 Java日志学习二:Apache Commons Logging (JCL)源码

  1. 关于commons-logging-api.jar和commong-logging.jar的差别可以参考http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-logging/guide.html
  2. commons-logging-api.jar it does not include the wrapper Log implementations that require additional libraries such as Log4j, Avalon and Lumberjack。必然的commons-logging.jar依赖log4j,而commons-logging-api.jar不依赖任何包。
  3. commons-logging.jar 和 log4j一起,LogFactory.getLog(X)得到的毫无疑问是org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger。
  4. commons-logging-api.jar 和 log4j一起,得到的是org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger。为什么?commons-logging-api.jar和commons-logging.jar的LogFactoryImpl classesToDiscover都是一模一样的,但commons-logging-api.jar里根本没有Log4JLogger这个类,肯定加载不到,最终使用JDK自身的日志实现类,由Jdk14Logger包装。
  5. 总的来说,你想使用commons-logging和Log4j(或者Avalon Lumberjack),请使用commons-logging.jar 和 log4j。如果你只是想使用commons-logging做一个门面,其它日志做实现,如slf4j,请使用commons-logging-api.jar和slf4j相关jar。

六.总结

  1. LogFactory实现类的查找和Log实现类的查找是两回事。但它们均可以在commons-logging.properties里定义。
  2. 合理采用commons-logging-api.jar和commons-logging.jar,首选commons-logging.jar肯定不会出问题,如果追求代码的干净请合理使用commons-logging-api.jar。
