My Article on Grails Logging in This Month’s GroovyMag

Posted by: Robert Fischer on 07/02/2009

I’ve got an article in this month’s GroovyMag entitled “Goldilocks and Grails Logging — Part 1″. As the title implies, it’s about getting logging just right, and this month’s installment talks about how to think about logging, the underlying Log4J library design, and the basics of the Grails Log4J DSL. Next month will be on advanced Log4J DSL manipulation (including a stunt I just learned!), Sublog, and P6Spy.
