How can I make Spring WebServices log all SOAP requests?

java spring web-services spring-mvc soap

I need all SOAP requests logged in the CommonLogFormat (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Log_Format), plus the duration (the amount of time it takes to process the request).

What's the best way to do this? It looks like it's possible to configure log4j for Spring WebServices but will it log all the values I'm interested in? http://pijava.wordpress.com/2009/12/04/spring-webservice-soap-requestresponse-logging-with-log4j/

EDIT: We're actually using SLF4J, not Log4j. Also, it looks like it's possible to do this by configuring the PayloadLoggingInterceptor: http://static.springsource.org/spring-ws/site/reference/html/server.html#server-endpoint-interceptor

But I am not sure where the log messages will go. I added that interceptor to our interceptors and I don't see any log messages.

For Spring Boot project adding below in application.properties worked for me:

logging.level.org.springframework.web=DEBUG
logging.level.org.springframework.ws.client.MessageTracing.sent=DEBUG
logging.level.org.springframework.ws.server.MessageTracing.sent=DEBUG
logging.level.org.springframework.ws.client.MessageTracing.received=TRACE
logging.level.org.springframework.ws.server.MessageTracing.received=TRACE
