## org.apache.tools.ant.listener
Class CommonsLoggingListener

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.tools.ant.listener.CommonsLoggingListener

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.util.EventListener, BuildListener, BuildLogger

    public class CommonsLoggingListener

extends java.lang.Object
implements BuildListener, BuildLogger

Jakarta Commons Logging listener. Note: do not use the SimpleLog as your logger implementation as it causes an infinite loop since it writes to System.err, which Ant traps and reroutes to the logger/listener layer. The following names are used for the log: org.apache.tools.ant.Project.PROJECT_NAME - for project events org.apache.tools.ant.Target.TARGET_NAME - for target events TASK_CLASS_NAME.TARGET_NAME - for events in individual targets. In all target and project names we replace "." and " " with "-". TODO: we should use the advanced context logging features (and expose them in c-l first :-) TODO: this is _very_ inefficient. Switching the out and tracking the logs can be optimized a lot - but may require few more changes to the core.

Since:
  Ant 1.5
