Hibernate 3.x used slf4j for logging. Hibernate 4.x uses jboss-logging. I am writing a standalone application which uses Hibernate 4, and SLF4J for logging.
How can i configure Hibernate to log to SLF4J?
If that's not possible, how can i configure Hibernate's logging at all?
The Hibernate 4.1 manual section on logging starts with the warning that it is ...
Completely out of date. Hibernate uses JBoss Logging starting in 4.0. This will get documented as we migrate this content to the Developer Guide.
... goes on to talk about SLF4J, and so is useless. Neither the getting started guide nor the developer guide talk about logging at all. Nor does the migration guide.
I have looked for documentation on jboss-logging itself, but i haven't been able to find any at all. The GitHub page is silent, and JBoss's community projects page doesn't even list jboss-logging. I wondered if th project's bug tracker might have any issues relating to providing documentation, but it doesn't.
The good news is that when using Hibernate 4 inside an application server, such as JBoss AS7, logging is largely taken care of for you. But how can i configure it in a standalone application?
