Summary:              Logger.getLogger (compact initialization)
Issue Type:           Improvement
Affects Versions:     2.0.0-alpha1
Assignee:             SLF4J developers list
Components:           Core API
Created:              08/Feb/21 8:02 AM
Environment:
  Manual definition of {{Logger}} field in class.
  
   
Priority:             Minor
Reporter:             Sergey Chernov
Description:
  Most common use case of logger declaration looks like
  
  {code}
  
  import org.slf4j.Logger;
  
  import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
  
  ...
  
  private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(CurrentType.class);
  
  {code}
  
   
  
  It's almost fine, but it could be more compact:
  
  {code}
  
  import org.slf4j.Logger;
  
   ...
  
  private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(CurrentType.class);
  
  {code}
  
   
  
  Before java 8 it was not possible ({{Logger}} is an interface, not abstract class), now since the minimum required version is 9, the static initialization method can be introduced in the interface.
