Joachim Durchholz commented on SLF4J-154:
-----------------------------------------
The selling point of having a copy&paste-capable logger setup line without
having to think, so you can concentrate on your class logic.
The MethodHandles method sort-of achieves that (it does for a colleague who is
good at remembering things, I am not so it does not work very well for me).
Spotting incorrectly named loggers after the fact sort-of achieves that, too,
depending on wether that error message comes as a distraction from more serious
problems, or as the only, quickly-fixed problem. It's still more overhead than
necessary (to be weighed against code bloat in SLF4J, but in this case I think
it's worth it since SLF4J is about making logging a no-brainer).

> This is a feature request.
> Currently, when I create a new logger in a class, I copy & paste the
> following line from another class:
> private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(AcmeImpl.class);
> Sometimes I forget to change the class name. SLF4J could help me here. I
> suggest to add a new method, so the class name is not required, so that I can
> copy & paste the line without having to remember that I have to change the
> class name. Also, it's a bit shorter:
> private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getCallerClassLogger();
> This is copy & paste friendly. The implementation is tricky, but trivial once
> you understand it:
> getCallerClassLogger() {
> return getLogger(new Error().getStackTrace()[1].getClassName());
> }
> There is a project that tries to solve the copy & paste problem:
> http://code.google.com/p/morbok/
