Lewis John McGibbney commented on GORA-77:
------------------------------------------
Well you're absolutely correct, this ties in with my own experience as well as
the bulk of the projects I've worked on utilise an Slf4j over Log4j approach, I
suppose if we agree then this issue should be renamed accordingly.
Put simply my justification to change this would be the following:
- Slf4j would enable us with the logging abstraction, if users were not happy
with Log4j they could change this accordingly within their own implementations.
- Log4j provides us with a easily to tune, fine grained logger. Again depending
on how a user wishes to implement logging within their Gora deployment, and the
subsequent cost the can afford to do logging they can easily change the
granularity.
I must be open that I personally have not much experience working with commons
logging, I've always had good experiences working with Slf4j & Log4j. Although
it may sound slightly illogical to change something that isn't broken, I hope
that the two points highlighted above would justify this issue.
wdyt?
Thanks
