<p align="justify">HSSF now has a logging facility (using
<a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging.html">commons logging</a>)
that will record massive amounts of debugging information. Its mostly
useful to us hssf-developing geeks, but might be useful in tracking
down problems. By default we turn this off because it results in
unnecessary performance degradation when fully turned on! Using it is
simple. You need an hssflog.properties file (example listed below,
those familiar with log4j can customize this as they wish). You can
either put this in your home directory (or wherever the default
directory is on windows which I suspect is c:\windows) or you can put
it wherever you want and set the HSSF.log to the path ending in "/"
(or "\\" on windows). If for any reason HSSF can't find it,
you get no logging. If the log configuration dictates the logging be
turned off, you get no logging.</p>

<p align="justify">So Why use commons logging rather than log4j? Well the following discussion from
the jakarta-general mailing list sums it up pretty well. (Thanks Morgan)
</p>
<p align="justify">
<em>Here's the problem, as I see it.</em>
</p>
<p align="justify">
<em>Suppose Commons component A decides to adopt Log4J, Commons component B
decides to adopt LogKit, and Commons component C adopts JDK1.4 logging.
They will all minimally function with the right jars in the classpath.
However you (the end-user) are left with maintaining configuration for 3
different logging APIs, which is tedious at best. When you take into
account cool features like variable log levels, Log4J appenders and the
like, you're pretty much guaranteed to swallow up useful configuration
options because sophisticated configurations are too difficult to maintain
over mutiple logging implementations.</em>
</p>
<p align="justify">
<em>Contrarily, if all three Commons components use a logging facade, you can
focus all your configuration efforts on one logging implementation. Sure,
there is a trade-off; you don't have access to all the features, and the
interface between the facade and the implementation must be maintained. But
the benefits are not just political; they potentially make the end-users
configuration much easier.</em>
</p>
<p align="justify">
<em>Even if all Commons components used the same logging implementation (Log4J
for example), other projects in Jakarta-land may choose otherwise. If you
add enough Jakarta projects to your environment, you eventually end up with
the scenario described above. It's a worthwhile effort to attempt a logging
solution that plays well with the Jakarta community at large. I think in
many cases the Commons Logging component can fill that role.</em>
