Logging Capabilities

In order to be compliant with IBM's Ready for Rational Software (RFRS) certification program, logging capabilities need to be added to the plugin. RFRS ensures that high-quality add-ons to Eclipse and the IBM Software Development Platform are being developed.

RFRS requirements indicate that exceptions and other servie-related information should be appended to a log file. Section 3.6 of "eclipse: Building Commercial-Quality Plug-ins" offers a good sample class that can be used for logging.

A new issue was generated with the need for logging specified. Later today, a new class will be implemented and compiled for logging capabilities. Expect an update tonight with the logging issue closed and new unit test(s) in place.
