Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-8324:
------------------------------------
I guess it depends on how one views loggers.
Classes can be implementation details. Different loggers (and logger
configuration) are more interface than anything else. Hence if one does a
little code refactoring (an implementation change... say pulling something out
into a private utility class), does it always make sense to change the logger?
My gut says no.
But as I said in the email thread, the majority of the sharing cases may be due
to laziness.
> Logger Untanglement

> Key: SOLR-8324
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8324
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Mike Drob
> Fix For: Trunk
>
>
> I propose that we do a thorough examination of how we use loggers over the
> whole project. There are many instances of loggers being shared between
> classes that make troubleshooting difficult, and we can probably clean up
> some of the usage that has accumulated over numerous code moves and
> refactorings.
> Because this has the potential to scope wildly out of control, I would like
> to break the work down into several subtasks.
> * Loggers should be declared all three of {{private static final}} when
> possible. This both helps avoid the situations described in later bullets,
> and might provide a very minor performance improvement.
> * Distinct classes should not use loggers from other classes, unless they are
> explicitly delegated to do so.
> * Subclasses should declare their own loggers instead of relying on loggers
> from parent classes.
> * Examine if forbidden-api or some other tool(s) can help maintain this, once
> we reach a desired state.
> Each bullet might turn into one or more tasks, depending on how invasive
> individual changes become.
