log4j support in Android

Question

I am attempting to shoehorn an existing SDK onto an android device and one of the dependencies of said SDK is Apache log4j. I am able to load my test program onto the androi

Answer 1

I would recommend trying to swap in slf4j in place of log4j. It's not a painless switch but its likely to be easier than what you have. slf4j provides a common front-end for several loggers including log4j and there is an slf4j-android package.

No, Android's logging mechanism is not decent. It's very inadequate compared to what log4j can do for you.
