slf4介绍
slf4j是门面模式的典型应用，门面模式，其核心为外部与一个子系统的通信必须通过一个统一的外观对象进行，使得子系统更易于使用。
slf4j里面只有接口的定义，没有具体的日志的实现，各个日志框架都实现了slf4j的接口。
slf4j只是一个日志标准，并不是日志系统的具体实现。
这样就很方便系统做日志框架的切换。
slf4j只做两件事情
- 提供日志接口
- 提供获取具体日志对象的方法
分析下slf4j的源码
public static void main(String[] args) {
Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Object.class);
logger.error("test main");
}
看下getLogger方法
public static Logger getLogger(Class<?> clazz) {
Logger logger = getLogger(clazz.getName());
if (DETECT_LOGGER_NAME_MISMATCH) {
Class<?> autoComputedCallingClass = Util.getCallingClass();
if (autoComputedCallingClass != null && nonMatchingClasses(clazz, autoComputedCallingClass)) {
Util.report(String.format("Detected logger name mismatch. Given name: \"%s\"; computed name: \"%s\".", logger.getName(),
autoComputedCallingClass.getName()));
Util.report("See " + LOGGER_NAME_MISMATCH_URL + " for an explanation");
}
}
return logger;
}
进一步看getLogger(clazz.getName())
public static Logger getLogger(String name) {
ILoggerFactory iLoggerFactory = getILoggerFactory();
return iLoggerFactory.getLogger(name);
}
public static ILoggerFactory getILoggerFactory() {
if (INITIALIZATION_STATE == UNINITIALIZED) {
synchronized (LoggerFactory.class) {
if (INITIALIZATION_STATE == UNINITIALIZED) {
INITIALIZATION_STATE = ONGOING_INITIALIZATION;
performInitialization();
}
}
}
switch (INITIALIZATION_STATE) {
case SUCCESSFUL_INITIALIZATION:
return StaticLoggerBinder.getSingleton().getLoggerFactory();
case NOP_FALLBACK_INITIALIZATION:
return NOP_FALLBACK_FACTORY;
case FAILED_INITIALIZATION:
throw new IllegalStateException(UNSUCCESSFUL_INIT_MSG);
case ONGOING_INITIALIZATION:
// support re-entrant behavior.
// See also http://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-97
return SUBST_FACTORY;
}
throw new IllegalStateException("Unreachable code");
}
}
重点在这个performInitialization()方法里;
private final static void performInitialization() {
bind();
if (INITIALIZATION_STATE == SUCCESSFUL_INITIALIZATION) {
versionSanityCheck();
}
}
private final static void bind() {
try {
Set<URL> staticLoggerBinderPathSet = null;
// skip check under android, see also
// http://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-328
if (!isAndroid()) {
staticLoggerBinderPathSet = findPossibleStaticLoggerBinderPathSet();
reportMultipleBindingAmbiguity(staticLoggerBinderPathSet);
}
// the next line does the binding
StaticLoggerBinder.getSingleton();
INITIALIZATION_STATE = SUCCESSFUL_INITIALIZATION;
reportActualBinding(staticLoggerBinderPathSet);
fixSubstituteLoggers();
replayEvents();
// release all resources in SUBST_FACTORY
SUBST_FACTORY.clear();
} catch (NoClassDefFoundError ncde) {
String msg = ncde.getMessage();
if (messageContainsOrgSlf4jImplStaticLoggerBinder(msg)) {
INITIALIZATION_STATE = NOP_FALLBACK_INITIALIZATION;
Util.report("Failed to load class \"org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder\".");
Util.report("Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation");
Util.report("See " + NO_STATICLOGGERBINDER_URL + " for further details.");
} else {
failedBinding(ncde);
throw ncde;
}
} catch (java.lang.NoSuchMethodError nsme) {
String msg = nsme.getMessage();
if (msg != null && msg.contains("org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder.getSingleton()")) {
INITIALIZATION_STATE = FAILED_INITIALIZATION;
Util.report("slf4j-api 1.6.x (or later) is incompatible with this binding.");
Util.report("Your binding is version 1.5.5 or earlier.");
Util.report("Upgrade your binding to version 1.6.x.");
}
throw nsme;
} catch (Exception e) {
failedBinding(e);
throw new IllegalStateException("Unexpected initialization failure", e);
}
}
static Set<URL> findPossibleStaticLoggerBinderPathSet() {
// use Set instead of list in order to deal with bug #138
// LinkedHashSet appropriate here because it preserves insertion order
// during iteration
Set<URL> staticLoggerBinderPathSet = new LinkedHashSet<URL>();
try {
ClassLoader loggerFactoryClassLoader = LoggerFactory.class.getClassLoader();
Enumeration<URL> paths;
if (loggerFactoryClassLoader == null) {
paths = ClassLoader.getSystemResources(STATIC_LOGGER_BINDER_PATH);
} else {
paths = loggerFactoryClassLoader.getResources(STATIC_LOGGER_BINDER_PATH);
}
while (paths.hasMoreElements()) {
URL path = paths.nextElement();
staticLoggerBinderPathSet.add(path);
}
} catch (IOException ioe) {
Util.report("Error getting resources from path", ioe);
}
return staticLoggerBinderPathSet;
}
其中classLoader.getResources会读取工程里面的类STATIC_LOGGER_BINDER_PATH的，其中包含各个日志框架。
logback框架
log4j
slf4j-simple
定义是
private static String STATIC_LOGGER_BINDER_PATH = "org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class";
各个日志框架都有StaticLoggerBinder类，且都在相同的路径下面。
// the next line does the binding
StaticLoggerBinder.getSingleton();
如果有多个日志框架选择哪个。
slf4j多个日志怎么选择
具体选择哪个日志框架其实是由JVM决定， 官方的说法你可以简单的认为是随机的，因此在实际生产中应当避免这个问题。以下是官方的原话
The way SLF4J picks a binding is determined by the JVM and for all practical purposes should be considered random.
