[QOS.CH (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-124?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=18065#comment-18065 ] 

Joern Huxhorn commented on SLF4J-124:
-------------------------------------

This issue is now nearly 8 years old.

If we wait just a little longer, we could use Java 8 default methods implemented on the {{Logger}} interface itself to fix it. That way it would "just work" for existing {{Logger}} implementations but they could still opt-in to override with different functionality.

I don't know the scope of slf4j 2.0 but if it would include lazy message generation using lambdas then that would require Java 8 anyway.

[End of Public Updates for Oracle JDK 7|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html] was reached 2015-04. Updates via paid Oracle Premier Support are still available, though.

> It is occasionally useful to have a log method that takes a level as a parameter.  The necessary methods can be added to the Util class without any compatibility issues as far as I can see - see attached patch.
