Colin B. commented on KAFKA-105: -------------------------------- It appears that due to lack of discussion this bug should be closed as wont fix. > switch to using slf4j > --------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-105 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-105 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: core > Reporter: Chris Burroughs > Assignee: Chris Burroughs > > Breaking out discussion from KAFKA-96. > slf4j has a cleaner (and faster) way of not logging: > http://www.slf4j.org/faq.html#logging_performance that avoid both the > redundant if's and string con-catting. slf4j is just an api, we would still > use log4j for the actual logging in the standalone server. This also makes > it easier on downstream projects who are not using log4j. The downside is > that java logging is notoriously complicated, and now we would have two > logging frameworks that can break. > Discussion from other projects; ZOOKEEPER-850, SOLR-560 HBASE-2608, > CASSANDRA-625, THRIFT-558 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
