There is no equivelent because it is considered a bad design and we attempt
to block bad design. Ideally it should be refactored such that;
1. the method is non-static and part of a service
2. the method does not log but throws meaningful exceptions which clients log
3. the method accepts context information (like a Logger object) which it
uses during the "request"
4. You shortcut that and directly use LogKit or Log4j or whatever the
underlying framework is
4 is the least desirable, 1/2 are the best methods while 3 is sort of a work
around
