Name: elR10090 Date: 09/24/2001
The following test shows that LogManager ignores
java.util.logging.config.class property and reads configuration from
default file (jre/lib/logging.properties) during creation of LogManager
instance.
The spec (Merlin-b80) from LogManager class says:
In addition, the LogManager uses two optional system properties that
allow more control over reading the initial configuration:
"java.util.logging.config.class"
"java.util.logging.config.file"
These two properties may be set via the Preferences API, or as command
line property definitions to the "java" command, or as system property
definitions passed to JNI_CreateJavaVM.
If the "java.util.logging.config.class" property is set, then the
property value is treated as a class name. The given class will be
loaded, an object will be instantiated, and that object's constructor
is responsible for reading in the initial configuration. (That object
may use other system properties to control its configuration.)
If "java.util.logging.config.class" property is *not* set, then the
"java.util.logging.config.file" system property can be used to specify
a properties file (in java.util.Properties format). The initial logging
configuration will be read from this file.
The failure was observed on all platforms since Merlin-b70.
See the test code and its output:
import java.util.logging.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Test {
static LogManager manager;
static boolean wasHere = false;
public static void main(String args[]) {
System.setProperty("java.util.logging.config.class", "Test$Config");
manager = LogManager.getLogManager();
System.out.println("wasHere = " + wasHere);
}
public static class Config {
public Config() {
wasHere = true;
}
}
}
