[slf4j-user] Why is Logger not serializable

[florian.huonder at itartis.ch]

Hi all,

In the FAQ of SLF4J it says "As of SLF4J version 1.5.3, logger instances 
survive serialization". For me this means that all SLF4J loggers are 
serializable. But only the Logger implementations are Serializable "not 
the interface".
Due to this my code analysis criticizes "Non-transient non-serializable 
instance field in serializable class" for the logger.
So my question is why does the logger interface not extend Serializable? 
>From the FAQ i understand that it is part of the contract of a Logger 
implementation that it is serializable.

Best regards,
Florian
