I'm setting up a template project for future all of our future projects to begin with...kind of a starting point that already has the tools necessary for our development architecture. I just realized that I have never had to set up Log4j in an enterprise project...it's always just "been there". I don't think I'll have difficulty with the build script building out the project. However, when it comes to setting up a tool like Log4j that will be used in
java projects as well as web projects and potentially
EJB projects, I don't really know where to store the Log4j.jar & Log4j.xml file so I that I don't have them laying around in every project. I am interested in the best practices strategy for tools that are shared among projects tied to an EAR project and any information you all think might be useful.
Thanks,
Travis
