[Bug classpath/22947] New: logging system configured from wrong location

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

According to the documentation of java.util.logging.LogManager (whose official 
doc can be found here 
http://developer.classpath.org/doc/java/util/logging/LogManager.html ;) ) the 
configuration should be loaded in this way:



"If the system property java.util.logging.config.file  is not set, however, the 
contents of the URL "{gnu.classpath.home.url}/logging.properties" are passed to 
readConfiguration(InputStream). Here, "{gnu.classpath.home.url}" stands for the 
value of the system property gnu.classpath.home.url"



That means reading of a physical file like 
/usr/share/classpath/logging/logging.properties should happen. 



However currently our logging.properties file is part of the system classpath 
and lies at java/util/logging (e.g. within glibj.zip).



To be correct with the specificatio above the file should be taken out of the 
classpath and installed at ${prefix}/lib/logging.



However I have to admit that this would mean /usr/lib/logging on many systems 
and I am not sure whether this is a suitable place. I suggest 
/usr/lib/classpath/logging instead.

Sorry, this is an error in my description: the path is not correct however, 
that the file should be read from a stand-alone file is.
