Ceki Gulcu commented on LBCLASSIC-184: -------------------------------------- > There are two reasons: > > #1 - Provide our own SLF4J OSGi native logger implementation which > re-use Logging Classic as logging backend > > #2 - Implement fragment packaging approach > The only alternative I can see to #1 is to throw away Logback Classic > and implement something new based on just Logback Core. We might call > this Logback OSGi. I didn't like that path because much functionality > already exists in Logback Classic. It would be quite unfortunate if you were forced to re-implement logback-classic. > The fragment bundling approach is the one I prefer. It is more > predictable than using bundles with optional imports especially when > you need to deploy multiple versions of SLF4J. See also > http://bugzilla.slf4j.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75#c14. Will do. Looking at your recipe for reproducing the problem, I noticed that the logback-core bundle imports org.slf4j. Given that the logback-core module does NOT depend at all on SLF4J, I find the import highly suspicious. > Remove Cyclic Dependencies between Classic, SLF4J API and SLF4J Impl > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LBCLASSIC-184 > URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-184 > Project: logback-classic > Issue Type: Task > Components: Other > Affects Versions: 0.9.18 > Reporter: Gunnar Wagenknecht > Assignee: Ceki Gulcu > Attachments: context-selector.patch, mdc-move.patch > > > When working with Logback as OSGi bundles I found some issues regarding > cyclic dependencies. Basically, code in "org.slf4j.impl" depends on > "org.slf4j.api" as well as Logback classic. This is fine. However, code in > Logback classic also depends on "org.slf4j.impl". This introduces a cycle. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira _______________________________________________ logback-dev mailing list logback-dev@qos.ch http://qos.ch/mailman/listinfo/logback-dev
