<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>This implementation of commons-logging uses a commons-logging.jar
specific to a particular logging framework, instead of discovery. This takes
out the guessing, is simpler, faster and more robust. Just like you chose a
logging implementation, you should also use a matching commons-logging - for
example you download log4j.jar and commons-logging-log4j.jar, or use jdk
logging and use commons-logging-jdk.jar.</p>
<p>A similar packaging is used by Eclipse SWT - they provide a common widget API,
but each platform uses a different implementation jar - instead of using a complex
discovery/plugin mechanism.
</p>
<p>This package generates commons-logging-jdk14.jar - i.e. the java.util implementation
of commons-logging api.</p>
