I am new to Java logging API and need some help with this problem:
While creating the application, my config file was stored in the project root folder, so I used -Djava.util.logging.config.file=logging.properties switch to run the program.
But then I exported the executable JAR.
How to configure the logging now? It doesn’t work, when I specify the path to config file with the -D switch.
You can’t specify JVM arguments into the MANIFEST.MF file so you have to specify the logging properties at the command line or with a shortcut :
Otherwise you could package a properties file(logging.properties in your case) in the JAR, read that at
startup and put those settings into the system properties.
