getLogger

public static java.util.logging.Logger getLogger(javax.servlet.ServletContext servletContext,
                                                 java.lang.String name)

Gets the logger for the provided ServletContext and name. The logger is stored as a context attribute under the name (ATTRIBUTE_NAME+'.'+name). Subsequent calls to this method will return the previously created logger. If an error occurs while creating the logger it will return the default logger. In this case, it will not add the logger to the servletContext, which will cause it to try again until a fully functional logger is available.

Callers of this class should reqest a logger each time they need one and not cache/reuse the logger provided by this method. This allows for the automatic retry on logger creation.
