Apache Commons Logging is useful when a developers writes a logger for his application but at some later point he switches the logging handler but his original code can't get re-written (because of various reasons).
The Commons Logging project, if used, will provide an intermediary layer between the code that handles all the logging operations and the "new" logging handler.
It will translate instructions and responses between the two mediums, allowing the application to continue its original logging operations without needing a major overhaul of its logger component.
Just to name the most important supported logging toolkits we mention AvaloLog4J, Jdk13Logger, Jdk14Logger, AvalonLogger, and LogKit.
What is new in this release:
- Fixed Bugs:

- SecurityAllowedTestCase when executed with OpenJDK 1.7 due to an additional required RuntimePermission.
- Fixed javadoc to comply with javadoc tool from JDK 1.8.
What is new in version 1.1.1:
- Bug fixes:
- Unit tests fail on linux with java16.
- NPE thrown due to exception message logging.
