For convenience, here is the code snippets I'm looking at.
private static final AtomicReference<LoggerContext> CONTEXT = new
AtomicReference<LoggerContext>();
// ...
private LoggerContext getDefault() {
final LoggerContext ctx = CONTEXT.get();
if (ctx != null) {
return ctx;
}
CONTEXT.compareAndSet(null, new LoggerContext("Default"));
return CONTEXT.get();
}
My question here is why is this so lazily loaded? Is constructing a default
LoggerContext that expensive? I'm mainly asking because I'm working on a
BundleContextSelector for OSGi, and it's somewhat similar in some sense to
the ClassLoaderContextSelector. I'd like to keep code duplication to a
minimum, but I also need to understand the design decisions made here, too.
