title: How can I disable Apache Commons / Log4J logging in third party libraries?
body: <p>Is there a Apache Commons / Log4J logging API method which can be used to disable all logging completely, even for loggers which are in third party libraries?</p>
  
  <p>Background: I would like to use java.util.logging in a GlassFish v3 web application. However, a third party library in this web app uses Log4J logging and Apache Commons Logging. To save resources, this logging should be minimized or switched off.</p>
