I concur. I don’t see any reason to delay this.

Subject: [osgi-technology-dev] slf4j-osgi and slf4j 2.0

 

slf4j 2.0 has been released to maven central. For 2.0, they change to use ServiceLoader to locate the binding instead of the binding being a specific class name loaded from the class path.

 

I have updated the slf4j-osgi code to work with slf4j 2.0. The slf4j.api 2.0 bundle uses Service Loader Mediator to connect to implementations. The slf4j.osgi 2.0 bundle now also uses Service Loader Mediator to provide the implementation. Spi-Fly is used in the test to connect the provider and consumer.

 

Since slf4j 2.0 is now in the wild and dependabot is encouraging people to update, I think we should make a release of this new 2.0 version of slf4j-osgi to maven central. Any concerns?
