Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-33:
-----------------------------------
Yes, I've seen that. What I had hoped was that all the logger calls could be
annotations, but Java 6 & 7 don't provide support for that. In Java 8
annotations aren't allowed everywhere but it may be possible to do a lot more.
I originally thought it would be cool if the annotations did nothing if logging
was disabled but then would inject code if it was. However, that doesn't seem
realistic the more I think about it.

> The Log4j API should support using annotations as provided in Java 6 so
> applications can use them instead of calls to logger APIs. This is especially
> useful for entering & exiting type of events, but could be used wherever
> annotations are allowed.
