use slf4j format pattern like dot net string format,it seems more elgeant

SLF4J Manual

SLF4J user manual

The Simple Logging Facade for Java or (SLF4J) serves as a simple facade or abstraction for various logging frameworks, such as java.util.logging, log4j and logback. SLF4J allows the end-user to plug in the desired logging framework at deployment time. Note that SLF4J-enabling your library/application implies the addition of only a single mandatory dependency, namely slf4j-api-1.6.4.jar.

SINCE 1.6.0 If no binding is found on the class path, then SLF4J will default to a no-operation implementation.

Hello World

As customary in programming tradition, here is an example illustrating the simplest way to output "Hello world" using SLF4J. It begins by getting a logger with the name "HelloWorld". This logger is in turn used to log the message "Hello World".

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

public class HelloWorld {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(HelloWorld.class);
    logger.info("Hello World");
  }
}

To run this example, you first need to download the slf4j distribution, and then to unpack it. Once that is done, add the file slf4j-api-1.6.4.jar to your class path.

Compiling and running HelloWorld will result in the following output being printed on the console.

SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.

This warning is printed because no slf4j binding could be found on your class path.

The warning will disappear as soon as you add a binding to your class path. Assuming you add slf4j-simple-1.6.4.jar so that your class path contains:

• slf4j-api-1.6.4.jar
• slf4j-simple-1.6.4.jar

Compiling and running HelloWorld will now result in the following output on the console.

0 [main] INFO HelloWorld - Hello World

Typical usage pattern

The sample code below illustrates the typical usage pattern for SLF4J. Note the use of {}-placeholders on line 15. See the question "What is the fastest way of logging?" in the FAQ for more details.

 

 1: import org.slf4j.Logger;
 2: import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
 3: 
 4: public class Wombat {
 5:  
 6:   final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Wombat.class);
 7:   Integer t;
 8:   Integer oldT;
 9:
10:   public void setTemperature(Integer temperature) {
11:    
12:     oldT = t;        
13:     t = temperature;
14:
15:     logger.debug("Temperature set to {}. Old temperature was {}.", t, oldT);
16:
17:     if(temperature.intValue() > 50) {
18:       logger.info("Temperature has risen above 50 degrees.");
19:     }
20:   }
21: }
