Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-7043:
-----------------------------------------

I understand the "intend" of our own abstraction - but again it is totally 
flawed as we expose a way to get to the underlying implementation as an API 
contract. This gives a false sense of safety.
Either we have a full abstraction making it safe to use - or we don't need the 
abstraction. But this is now something in the middle saying "yeah we have this 
abstraction, but you can directly use the dropwizard api as well" - and not 
even that for some use cases you have to use the dropwizard api as commons 
scheduler shows

> Exporting  com.codahale.metrics.MetricRegistry is breaking the abstraction

>             Project: Sling
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: Commons Metrics 1.0.0
>            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
>            Priority: Blocker
>             Fix For: commons metrics 1.2.4
>
>
> commons metrics provides a nice abstraction over  com.codahale.metrics - 
> however it is exporting  com.codahale.metrics.MetricRegistry which seems to 
> be the only way to get at registered metrics objects. Which in turn is 
> completely breaking the purpose of this bundle.
> So we should
> a) drop exporting that service and avoid leaking internal implementation 
> details
> b) create our own version of the registry service
