[seam-dev] DeltaSpike Logging

[Christian Kaltepoth]

Hi,

with "type safe logging" you are referring to typed loggers like
implemented in Solder, right? In this case you could perhaps add a sentence
what type safe logging actually is. I don't think that everybody knows that.

>    too difficult to implement, use or even get right, then we'll frustrate and
>    alienate developers.
>    2. It must perform.  We don't want to introduce large overhead to

>    3. There should be an option to allow/provide type safe logging.
>    4. An end user should be able to have DeltaSpike log against whichever
>    logging library they want to utilize in their application.  We can
>    certainly support a specific framework as a default, but it's important to
>    allow a developer to have the same control over how DeltaSpike is logged as
>    their own application.
