Holger Hoffstätte commented on ZOOKEEPER-850: --------------------------------------------- Why would log4j be required for "testing"? That's a *bug*. The whole problem is that you're tying "management" functionality to your logging library, and that needs to be removed (or more precisely separated). The coupling of ManagedUtil to log4j is a blocker for resolving this issue. It may not be relevant for running the server standalone, but it is a HUGE problem for running the server "embedded" (e.g. in an app server) just as it is for the "client-only" side of things. Which of course is just another case for separating the two in the first place. :( > Switch from log4j to slf4j > -------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-850 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-850 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: java client > Affects Versions: 3.3.1 > Reporter: Olaf Krische > Assignee: Olaf Krische > Fix For: 3.4.0 > > Attachments: ZOOKEEPER-3.3.1-log4j-slf4j-20101031.patch.bz2, > ZOOKEEPER-3.4.0-log4j-slf4j-20101102.patch.bz2, ZOOKEEPER-850.patch, > ZOOKEEPER-850.patch, ZOOKEEPER-850.patch, ZOOKEEPER-850.patch > > > Hello, > i would like to see slf4j integrated into the zookeeper instead of relying > explicitly on log4j. > slf4j is an abstract logging framework.
