@Logger private final Logger logger; would be able to initialize logger appropriately?
Yes. In Java 6 that's possible. You don't even need the second line: http://code.google.com/p/morbok/ (I already posted that link in the description). You might want to integrate something like Morbok in SLF4J. This is not a hack at all by the way. A similar technique is used in the JPA 2.0 API: http://blogs.sun.com/ldemichiel/entry/java_persistence_2_0_proposed (Metamodel API)
Basically annotations are metadata, so you need SOMETHING that will do something with it for this to happen. A normal classloader will NOT.
No, a classloader will not, but the annotation processor will. This is integrated in Java 6: http://www.javabeat.net/articles/14-java-60-features-part-2-pluggable-annota...
LoggerFactory.getEnclosingLogger(new Object(){}) too much of a hack to be publicly endorsed
I of agree. Specially with the 500 byte overhead. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.slf4j.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
