Greetings, I downloaded and installed the latest 1.7.2 source and when I tried to setup logging like the old tutorials examples Eclipse indicated that there was problems with the following statements.

 

public static Logger logger;
logger = Logger.getLogger(MODID);
logger.setParent(FMLLog.getLogger());

 

When I investigated the FML source I discovered that FMLLog no longer imports

 

import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;

 

 

but instead uses

import org.apache.logging.log4j.Level;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;

 

If i import log4j I get an error with "logger = Logger.getLogger(MODID);"

if I import the old java.util.logging i get errors with "logger.setParent(FMLLog.getLogger());"

 

So how do I properly use Logging with 1.7.2 mods?

 

 

Thanks in advanced

I use my common proxy class.

 

import cpw.mods.fml.common.FMLLog;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;

private static final Logger logger = FMLLog.getLogger();

.
.
.
public void print(String s)
{
logger.info(s);
}

I'm using this, which seems to work:

 

public static org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger logger;

 

@EventHandler

public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event){

    logger = event.getModLog();

 

    logger.info("Something");

}

I use this,

private static final Logger  logger  = LogManager.getFormatterLogger(MODID);

Thanks for the help

I use the following to register a new Logger

 

public static final Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger("LoggerName");
