If you create the class without any methods, say RootCategory, then the JVM will complain about the missing methods. You can thus focus on just the missing pieces instead of the entire implementations. It's an adhoc approach but at least its tractable bugzilla-daemon@pixie.qos.ch wrote:

--- Comment #2 from Boris Granveaud <boris@granveaud.com> 2009-12-02 17:50:58 --- I don't know exactly because all I've got is a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.spi.RootCategory and SmartGWT EE isn't provided with sources :( However there are only 1 constructor and 3 small methods.
I've tried to add a very simple implementation of RootCategory but now SmartGWT EE complains about org.apache.log4j.spi.LoggerRepository which itself is linked to several other classes in the same package...
