Yes, the log-file has to be defined somewhere - check your configuration and properties-files.

First off, let me state I'm not a Java programmer. &nbsp;I'm integrating some ASP .NET code with a Java Web App. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
My question is about the following line:<br />
<br />
private static Log log &nbsp;= LogFactory.getLog (myclass.class);<br />
<br />
and then they use log.error(e) or log.debug....etc.<br />
<br />
My question is, is this creating an actual log file somewhere on the system? &nbsp;I want to be able to check it for errors if indeed that's what it's for.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

LogFactory and Log

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
