Hello,

For your information, slf4j-api version 1.7.21 will work with current versions of log4j2 just fine albeit without replay support. For replay support, log4j2's implementation of org.slf4j.Logger interface needs to have a method with the signature log(org.slf4j.event.LoggingEvent) in which case events generated during SLF4J initialization will be replayed. Note that if log4j2's Logger implementation chooses to implement the aforementioned log method, log42 will de facto depend on SLF4J version 1.7.15 and later both at compile and *runtime*.

The runtime dependency might seem surprising but some applications perform reflection on the org.slf4j.Logger implementation which will fail without slf4j-api 1.7.15 or later being present on the classpath.

I hope this helps,

We are not fully compatible with this version of SLF4J.  It had some
initialization race conditions so Substitute Loggers were invented.
Anyway, there is a new interface we need to implement.
