If you wanted to use JDK 9 specific stuff for let's say performance improvements, then a multi release JAR comes into play. There you can overwrite/add some classes using the JDK 9 specific stuff and put them into the same JAR. If that is not needed at the moment we do not need a multi release JAR at all.
Upgrade SLF4J binding mechanism to use java.util.ServiceLoader --------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SLF4J-401 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-401 Project: SLF4J Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Core API Reporter: Ceki Gülcü Assignee: Ceki Gülcü Priority: Blocker Labels: binding Fix For: 1.8.0
The {{org.slf4j.impl.StaticXYZBinder}} approach has been surprisingly successful for such a crude mechanism. However, with the advent of Java 9/jigsaw/modularisation we need a more standard approach. {{java.util.ServiceLoader}} introduced in Java 6 seems to fit the bill.
