[ https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-371?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.i... ] Thalys de Aguiar Gomes commented on SLF4J-371: ---------------------------------------------- Hi Guys, Please, any final decision? Do you will or not add the lambda for lazy support? I'm looking forward to removing that if (isXXXenabled) all over the projects

Support the lambda expression in the Logger -------------------------------------------

Key: SLF4J-371 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-371 Project: SLF4J Issue Type: Improvement Components: Core API Affects Versions: 1.7.22 Reporter: MiNG Assignee: SLF4J developers list

In some cases, we don't want to calculate the expression for logging eagerly cause the performance reason. Then, we would write the code like the following: {code:java} if (LOGGER.isWarnEnabled()) {  LOGGER.warn("some message: {}", Json.serialize(obj)); }{code} Before JDK8, there is no way to encapsulate the above code, because the expression is always calculated before passed as an argument. So, many "if"s appear in the code and smell badly. Now, the lambda expression is supported by JDK8, the above could be simplified like following: {code:java} LOGGER.warn(formatter -> formatter.format("some message: {}", Json.serialize(obj)));{code} With the default method definition in the org.slf4j.Logger: {code:java} public interface Logger {  default void warn(Function<MessageFormatter, String> messageSupplier)  {   if (this.isWarnEnabled())   {    /* Calculate the expression only if the WARN level logging is enabled. */    this.warn(messageSupplier.apply(this.getFormatter()));   }  } }{code}
