Enable Weld Logging on Glassfish with Maven

Just figured out how to use a Weld-injected Logger on Glassfish.
Unfortunately, i couldn’t get Log4J12 as SL4J Implementation running, like the author of this post did (i hope i’ll find out later), but with the sl4j-jdk14 binding, the logging just works.

Steps:

1. Add the following dependencies to the pom.xml:

<!-- SL4J API -->
 <dependency>
 <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
 <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
 <version>1.6.0</version>
 </dependency>

 <!-- SLF4J JDK14 Binding  -->
 <dependency>
 <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
 <artifactId>slf4j-jdk14</artifactId>
 <version>1.6.0</version>
 </dependency>

 <!-- Injectable Weld-Logger -->
 <dependency>
 <groupId>org.jboss.weld</groupId>
 <artifactId>weld-logger</artifactId>
 <version>1.0.0-CR2</version>
 </dependency>

2. Inject the Logger and use it as usual:

import javax.inject.Inject;
import org.slf4j.Logger;

public class Example {
  @Inject
  private Logger logger;

  public void exampleFunc() {
    logger.info("Hello Logger!");
  }
}
