The loggers that can not logically support this (AvalonLogger, but what else?)
are a bride to another meta-logger.
So the answer from the IoC point of view:
A component requires a logger and for using the logger it is bound against
a specific interface. The IoC container will provide a logger implementation for
this interface and injects it into the component. It will make no sense to
use another meta-logger as JCL implementation if you are in IoC and have the
freedom of choice.
If I understand it right, the only reason for such things as "AvalonLogger" are
if you have Avanlon as IoC container but want to use a library in a
avalon-component that wants to have a JCL logger.
The AvalonLogger has to be statically initialized anyways to be used properly
with JCL which is sick.
So the short resumee: does not matter for me.
