[slf4j-dev] [JIRA] (SLF4J-154) Copy & paste of LoggerFactory.getLogger

[QOS.CH (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-154?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=18558#comment-18558 ] 

Sebastian Davids commented on SLF4J-154:
----------------------------------------

 Java 7+ one can use the following idiom:
 
{code:java}
(static) final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.lookup().lookupClass());
{code}
 
Maybe the documentation could be updated:

> 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/
