[hibernate-dev] Should static logger classes be avoided

Wed Mar 27 10:02:16 EDT 2013

Hi all,

I would like to get some feedback regarding https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HV-780 - "Use of static loggers prevent deployment as a shared library".
Given that all Hibernate I think all Hibernate projects use static loggers I was wondering what everyone thinks.

According to the issue having static loggers makes it hard/impossible to configure the log levels per application in case HV is used as a library.
