Thorbjoern Ravn Andersen commented on LBCLASSIC-172:
----------------------------------------------------
This is a memory leak, and should be treated as such.
I agree with Jörn that the code should not fail. If a Logger is unused (note
that static fields hold the instance infinitely) it should be able to be
garbage collected.
What is wrong with recreating a logger object if it has been disposed of, and
needs to be reinstantiated?
