Using an IDE like Eclipse, you can write a NOP implementation faster than you can blink an eyelid. Just create any class implementing the org.slf4j.Logger interface and let Eclipse generate the methods for you. You can also chose to extend org.slf4j.impl.MarkerIgnoringBase (org.slf4j.helpers.MarkerIgnoringBase in SLF4J 1.3) if you wish the generated class to be smaller. Does this help? >- Eric -- Ceki Gülcü Logback: The reliable, generic, fast and flexible logging framework for Java. http://logback.qos.ch _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@slf4j.org http://www.slf4j.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
