    <p>I have read similar questions on SO like <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/178215/log4j-vs-logback">this</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/178836/should-new-projects-use-logback-instead-of-log4j">this</a>. But they are about four years old!</p> <p>Also I have read <a href="http://logback.qos.ch/reasonsToSwitch.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> logback page, which has some really good info on why to choose Logback over log4j.</p> <p>I am looking to implement a logging framework for a project with the following technology stack -</p> <ul> <li>Spring</li> <li>Hibernate</li> <li>Maven</li> <li>Tomcat</li> <li>Rest</li> </ul> <p>I have already decided to use slf4j as the facade, so this question is on whether to use slf4j + log4j or slf4j + logback (I know that logback natively uses slf4j).</p> <p>What I am looking for is following -</p> <ul> <li>Has anyone had an experience with Logback that would prove it to be not as mature or efficient as log4j?</li> <li>How does it fair as compared to log4j in a multi-threaded environment?</li> <li>Ability to replace tomcat-default jul logging with logback/log4j logging</li> <li>Ability to consolidate logging configuration into a common file for a maven multi-module project</li> <li>Logback claims it's 10 times faster than log4j, has anyone validated that claim? (as part of my research I do plan to run some tests to measure performance and will post back my results)</li> </ul> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: I've read at many places (one of the answer below states this as well) that log4j is dead/deprecated. Contrary to that, log4j just released an <a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">alpha version</a> of its 2.0 release. So I do not buy that argument.</p>

    2. COLog4j2 has nothing to do with log4j as Struts 1 has anything to do with Struts 2 which is based on a code base donated from Webworks. Log4j2 is not backwards compatible with log4j. And lastly, Log4j2 is still in alpha, we're approaching Q3 of 2012. Log4j2 != log4j. Log4j roadmap is dead.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
