When this was first written LocationAwareLogger did not support passing objects. When it was modified EventLogger should have been modified to pass the EventData as an object but instead passes a null. logEvent should be modified as:

public static void logEvent(EventData data) {
if (eventLogger.instanceofLAL) {
((LocationAwareLogger) eventLogger.logger).log(EVENT_MARKER, FQCN,
LocationAwareLogger.INFO_INT, data.toXML(), new Object[]

{data}

, null);
} else

{ eventLogger.logger.info(EVENT_MARKER, data.toXML(), data); }

}
