slf4j-simple

A simple logging setup using SLF4J's slf4j-simple logging implementation.

Instructions

Follow these instructions to build and run the example program:

Pre-requisite: Java 21
Build the program distribution
- ```
./gradlew installDist
```
Run the program
- ```
build/install/slf4j-simple/bin/slf4j-simple
```
- It will output something like the following.
- ```
19:27:10 [main] WARN dgroomes.slf4j_simple.Main - A WARN-level message
19:27:10 [main] ERROR dgroomes.slf4j_simple.Main - An ERROR-level message
```
- Notice how the code specified TRACE, DEBUG and INFO level messages but only WARN and ERROR messages were logged. Study the logging configuration file src/main/resources/simplelogger.properties to see why.

Notes

How do you debug SLF4J itself? There must be a way to turn on debug or trace logs withing SLF4J's initialization phase...
