A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
There does not seem to be any way to make java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter output
the LogRecord time in milliseconds.


JUSTIFICATION :
Many applications require knowing when something happened with better than one second precision.

This functionality is so widely useful that it should be in the standard logging classes -
I should not have to find or write another class to do it.


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I would like to be able to generate log entries like this:

Jun 11, 2005 5:34:11.123 PM TestLogger main
INFO: testing

or this:

11/06/2005 16:35:27.123 TestLogger main
INFO: testing


ACTUAL -
I can only log this:

Jun 11, 2005 5:34:11 PM TestLogger main
INFO: testing

(no milliseconds)

or this:

11/06/2005 16:35:27 TestLogger main
INFO: testing

(again no milliseconds)


---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
import java.util.logging.*;


public class TestLogger
{
   static public void main( String[] args )
   {
      Logger.global.info( "testing" );
   }
}

---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
write my own class that extends java.util.logging.Formatter
