DaanHoogland commented on issue #2431: CLOUDSTACK-10225: Deprecate StringUtils 
in favor of Apache Commons
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2431#issuecomment-361906802
 
 
   I think you are missing the point @rafaelweingartner. We may *need* to do a 
major upgrade of a library (log4j/gson/bcprov) or we may need to change the 
entire library (slf4j and other logging implemetations/StringUtils of several 
providers). your example just proves a 'simple' upgrade and is actually making 
my point for me in this line: Having to change
   protected Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(getClass());
   to
   protected Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(getClass());
   in every 'base'class is not something we want to do.
   If we create a proxy class it will always be in only one place. this is 
irrespective of the discussion on static or instance var. It has to do with 
dealing with dependencies and the issue predates object oriented programming 
all together.
