Of the major players, [[log4j]] is still the front runner in the Java Logging ___domain{{Fact|date=June 2008}}. The log4j project has been around for a long time and has lots of support from the development community. It's simple to implement, yet has powerful tools built in to accomplish most logging tasks. It is also easily extensible to handle proprietary needs.
 
 
The Jakarta Commons Logging isn't really a logging framework, but a logging framework wrapper. As such, it requires a logging framework underneath it. It would be useful in an heterogeneous environment where the logging framework is likely to change. However, in most cases, once a suitable logging framework has been chosen, there is little need to change it over the life of the project.
 
The Java Logging API is also not a logging framework, but standard API for accessing a logging framework. Compatible frameworks can be loaded into JVM and accessed via the API. There is also a logging implementation supplied with the Sun JVM which is the default logging framework access by the API. Many developers confuse this implementation with the Java Logging API.
 
 
[[SLF4J]] and [[Logback]], both originally written by the same original writer of [[log4j]], are growing potential replacements in particular for log4j and Jakarta Commons Logging.
