So you know about XMLFormatter for logging, right? I'm curious: why
doesn't that work?

Nope. But you got me interested! Like I said, I'm no guru in Java EE.


It'd consider writing your formatted data to a socket, just on the
general principle that it might be more robust and more portable than
permanently wiring your logs to a database. However, you probably
know your requirements best. I do think writing to a socket would
obviate the need for any kind of multi-threading however.



Socket? But there always has to be an another thread or process in the
other end of the socket, no?

Socket programming is nothing new to me, 20+ years with C++ but J2EE
practices are new to me.
