Introduction
Colored Trails uses Apache log4J as a default logging mechanism. A short log4J manual can be found here.
In the Colored Trails code the log4J configuration file is located in
lib/conf/log4j.properties
Logging to stdout (standard output)
In Colored Trails Log4J is configured to log all log statements (debug and lower) to stdout.
Logging to MySQL

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS db_name where db_name is the name of the database you would like to create.
An example
Every Java class in the CT code can use the log4J mechanism. An example:
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass().getName());
logger.debug("Example log statement");
