Log directly from jetty to commons logging, bypassing SLF4J
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-6807
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6807
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: io
    Affects Versions: 0.21.0
            Reporter: Steve Loughran
            Priority: Minor


Jetty may default to logging through SLF4J, but don't actually need it; you can 
provide your own logger which goes straight to commons-logging, I've done 
something similar in the past:

[[http://smartfrog.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/smartfrog/trunk/core/components/jetty/src/org/smartfrog/services/jetty/log/]]

You just need to point jetty at the relevant logger by setting up the relevant 
JVM property, such as 
{{-Dorg.mortbay.log.class=org.smartfrog.services.jetty.log.JettyLogger}}. Doing 
something similar in Avro/Hadoop-common would eliminate SLF4J from the 
dependency graph, route via commons-logging and then, usually, to Log4J, so 
having only one log to manage. All JVM startup scripts would need to set the 
relevant property, it is harmless on JVMs that don't start up Jetty6+
