Phil Walker created SLF4J-492: --------------------------------- Summary: multiple_bindings warning impossible to disable on Windows using wildcard classpath Key: SLF4J-492 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-492 Project: SLF4J Issue Type: Bug Components: slf4j-simple Affects Versions: 1.7.30 Environment: Windows 10 java 1.8.0_251 scala 2.13.2   Reporter: Phil Walker Assignee: SLF4J developers list Classpath consists primarily of jars below a directory, via '-classpath 'c:\opt\uejlib2.13*'   Warning issued by slf4j:   SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings. SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/opt/uejlib2.13/slf4j-nop-1.7.30.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class] SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/c:/opt/uejlib2.13/slf4j-nop-1.7.30.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class] SLF4J: See [http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#multiple_bindings] for an explanation. SLF4J: Actual binding is of type [org.slf4j.helpers.NOPLoggerFactory] The two jar paths differ only with respect to one of them having a drive letter ("C:") and the other not.   Because of the way the jar was specified (via a directory wildcard -classpath), there would not appear to be any way to fix this on the client side.   If the two paths are compared via "java.io.File.getCanonicalPath", the apparent duplication is removed, making SLF4J less demanding of client code.   By the way, our project only pulls SLF4J in by way of a transitive dependency, and this spurious warning is quite problematic for us.   Thanks for your consideration!   -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.8.0#808000)
