How to enable logging for apache commons HttpClient on Android

Question

To enable logging for apache commons HttpClient in normal Java application I used:

System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.Log", "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog");
System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.showdatetime", "true");
System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.httpclient.wire", "debug");
System.setProperty("org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.org.apache.commons.httpclient", "debug");

But on android I don't see logs in LogCat.

Am I missing some thing?

Here is a solution (without digging into details)

Console:

adb shell setprop log.tag.httpclient.wire.header VERBOSE
adb shell setprop log.tag.httpclient.wire.content VERBOSE

Code:

java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("httpclient.wire.header").setLevel(java.util.logging.Level.FINEST);
java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("httpclient.wire.content").setLevel(java.util.logging.Level.FINEST);

Test:

java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("httpclient.wire.content").log(java.util.logging.Level.CONFIG, "hola");
