Remko Popma reopened LOG4J2-1180:
---------------------------------

Reopening for a potential issue I found while working on this area to address 
LOG4J2-1318:

[~garydgregory], [~ralph.go...@dslextreme.com], [~mikaelstaldal] can you take a 
look at SLF4JLoggerContext? It looks like the {{getLogger(String, 
MessageFactory)}} method currently ignores the MessageFactory, and when I try 
to fix that in the spirit of LOG4J2-1180, the test in log4j-to-slf4j 
org.a.l.slf4j.LoggerTest breaks...  
(getLogger_String_MessageFactoryMismatchNull and 
getLogger_String_MessageFactoryMismatch)

Is there something special about SLF4J Loggers that they must be unique by name 
only, not by name/MessageFactory? Or are the current implementation and the 
test simply wrong - LOG4J2-1180 was not addressed correctly here?

----
Looking further, SLF4JLoggerContext is implemented a bit differently from the 
other LoggerContext implementations (SimpleLoggerContext, log4j-core 
LoggerContext and Log4jTaglibLoggerContext): the others all check if the 
previously registered logger matches the MessageFactory by calling  
{{AbstractLogger.checkMessageFactory(logger, messageFactory)}}, but 
SLF4JLoggerContext does not.

Same question: is this a bug or is SLF4JLoggerContext special for some reason 
and is this difference by design?

> The Logger cache does not account for a logger's message factory.
> If you call {{LogManager.getLogger(Class|Object|String, MessageFactory)}} and 
> then call a getLogger() API again with the same {{Class|Object|String}} a 
> different message factory, you get the Logger that was first created which 
> means you will not get the proper formatted messages.
> For example:
> {code:java}
> Logger loggerA1 = LogManager.getLogger("A", messageFactory1);
> Logger loggerA2 = LogManager.getLogger("A", messageFactory2);
> {code}
> loggerA1 is the same as loggerA2.
> This is a problem if two unrelated code bases (jars) both the same Logger 
> names|objects|classes.
