I think a couple extra classes is worth switching from this:

public Order createOrder(User user, Product product, int quantity) {
   if ( log.isLoggable(Level.FINE) ) {
log.fine("Creating new order for user: " + user.username() + " product: " + product.name() + " quantity: " + quantity);
   }
   return new Order(user, product, quantity);
}

to this:

public Order createOrder(User user, Product product, int quantity) {
   log.debug("Creating new order for user: #0 product: #1 quantity: #2", 
user.username(), product.name(), quantity);
   return new Order(user, product, quantity);
}


Considering how often we log things, I think the cleanup is huge and a few classes are definitely worth the price.

Well, for one, we only really need one logging instance for the whole

java.util.logging API is a horribly designed, obtuse API.  I'd rather
see us write a small, clean API along the lines of Seam's logging class
that utilizes varargs to reduce the need for isDebugEnabled().


I agree that j.u.logging is a PoS, but it's ubiquitous, and for our
purposes, it workds fine. We may only need one logger for the whole
framework, but it's just as easy to create a logger per class, and you can still configure them all at once. I'd rather fix j.u.logging than build yet
another API.
