           Summary: Add logging utility methods
           Product: SLF4J
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core API
        AssignedTo: dev at slf4j.org
        ReportedBy: rgoers at apache.org


We've been using our own logging framework but are now switching to
SLF4J/Logback since they support features not available in Log4j. However, we
encourage developers to log entry and exit from most methods in every class. In
order for these to not overwhelm the debug log they must be able to be filtered
out separately from other debug messages. SLF4J effectively allows this through
the use of Markers. We've developed our own helper class to allow developers a
"standard" way of doing this but we really would prefer to not have as little
of our own code as possible. Plus, we'd prefer that code we get from other
sources do it the same way.

To that end I've provided this simple LoggerUtil class in the hope that it can
be added to SLF4J so that we don't have to maintain our own version of it.
