All,
Given the current blocker issues we have to fix on master in order to
release 4.6.0 and the fact that those changes don't really improve the current
code base, I will :-1: this PR and will object if this PR gets 2 LGTMs.
@rafaelweingartner, please have a look at the dev-list in order to see the
proposal for PRs and how they should be created.
In addition, for your students with less experience with
Java/Eclipse/Maven/Git, try to avoid giving them such a huge task.
Cheers,
Wilder

> We have noticed that every single class that is a subclass of
> “ComponentLifecycleBase” instantiate their on “logger” manually and uses a
> nonstandard name. We fixed that by changing the variable in
> “ComponentLifecycleBase” to protected and non-static and instantiated it
> using the method “getClass” from Object class. Therefore, we can reduce the
> code in a few hundred lines and use a more intuitive name for the logger
> variable.
> We do understand that “s_ something“ is a proper way to instantiate a static
> variable in ACS classes. However, in few of the subclasses of
> “com.cloud.utils.component.ComponentLifecycleBase” it was used names such as
> “LOGGER” (that is a proper name for static field as JAVA standards), log,
> status_logger and others.
> What we propose is to change the logger variable in
> “com.cloud.utils.component.ComponentLifecycleBase” to protected and remove
> its static and final declaration. Therefore we did the following in
> ComponentLifecycleBase:
> protected Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(getClass());
> This way, every single subclass of ComponentLifecycleBase, when
> instantiated would automatically have a logger instance for its proper class
> ready to be used.
> During that process we found a static method in class that used the
> “s_logger” variable in classes:
> com.cloud.network.element.VirtualRouterElement
> org.apache.cloudstack.network.element.InternalLoadBalancerElement
> To fix that we proposed to create a new class
> “com.cloud.network.element.HAProxyLBRule”, instantiate it with @Componente
> and inject into the aforementioned classes.
> That class will contain the following methods extracted from
> com.cloud.network.element.VirtualRouterElement class:
> com.cloud.network.element.HAProxyLBRule.containsOnlyNumbers(String, String)
> com.cloud.network.element.HAProxyLBRule.validateHAProxyLBRule(LoadBalancingRule)
> However we don't know if all analyzed classes are singletons, if some of
> analyzed classes aren't singletons. Therefore that change could have an
> impact on memory consumption. It will require a deeper analysis to check
> which classes are singleton or not and leave the “logger” as static in such
> classes.
> We have a solution at our own branch
> https://github.com/rafaelweingartner/cloudstack/tree/master-lrg-cs-hackday-003
> However, there is still the need to double-check the singleton problem.
> There is a PR we created in our first attempt to solve that problem:
> https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/714
> The dev that starts working on this ticket can reach us at any moment, hence
> that we have mapped all of ComponentLifecycleBase subclasses that use the
> logger variable.
