带有 jdk14 的 slf4j 正在将 INFO 消息记录到 stderr

Question

I am trying to get a grip of slf4j with jdk14. Weirdly, some INFO level messages are appearing in stderr.

I am executing the jar with the following command

java -Djava.util.logging.config.file=./src/main/resources/logging.properties -jar ./target/adwordsConnectorV2-account.jar

I am sure that they are INFO level, because when I set the property java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level to ALL , the messages show, but when it is set to SEVERE , they don't show.

Please can someone tell me why they might be logging to stderr instead of stdout?

Thanks

Ben

Answer 1

I was seeing messages on stderr because that's the destination used by ConsoleHandler - see the ConsoleHandler javadoc here

The following post shows how to redirect the output, but that is kind of avoiding the problem How do I change java logging console output from std err to std out?

i have decided to switch to log4j instead as recommended by the google adwords team

Answer 2

I started to have the same issue after adding a new dependency (no code changes, no changes to the property file).

This new dependency was transitively pulling in sfl4j , and adding an exclusion in the pom file fixed the issue, as follows:

    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.apache.datasketches</groupId>
      <artifactId>datasketches-hive</artifactId>
      <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
          <artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
      </exclusions>
    </dependency>
