With the upcoming Scala support, shall we start investigating general polyglot support?

I'm currently interesting in a few JVM languages, and besides Groovy, each
language seems to have their own idiomatic ways of handling things that are
just slightly different enough from Java to either warrant a separate
module (like the Scala one) or at least documenting how to use it in such a
language. For instance, some details on using Log4j in Kotlin: <
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34416869/idiomatic-way-of-logging-in-kotlin
>.

I'm not familiar enough with any of the languages to really make good
recommendations yet, but I think it might be worthwhile to start
documenting support in other JVM languages. What do you guys think?

Documenting, sure. But I am wondering if we need to have modifications such as those for Scala it might be better to create a separate project for other jvm languages.  At some point we might need to refactor other things out as well just to shorten the build time.

Oh right. Groovy has some docs already, but it'd be useful to mention it in
our docs, too.

Seems reasonable, if you add Groovy to the list. Not sure how popular
Ceylon actually is.

Oh, I almost forgot, there's a terrible way to abuse Groovy that causes
performance problems, and I found this out by accident once:

import static org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager.logger

def foo() {
    logger.debug("Hello, world!")
}

This calls LogManager.getLogger() for every use of "logger", and that
doesn't do any caching of the calling class (how would it?), so that turned
out to be a terrible idea. It was pretty cool, though, until Groovy added
the @Log4j2 annotation natively.

Re: With the upcoming Scala support, shall we start investigating general polyglot support?

Posted by Matt Sicker <bo...@gmail.com>.
The amount of support code Lombok has to abuse the annotation processor the
way it does makes it seem like it should remain outside log4j. The lack of
a need for Groovy-specific code is because Groovy is very similar to Java.
Even without the annotations, you could do something like:

class Foo {
    static Logger log = LogManager.logger
    // ...
}

A small list of JVM languages that may be worth documenting or providing
small compatibility modules for are:

* Scala (already completed)
* Clojure
* Kotlin
* Ceylon
* JRuby
* Jython
* JavaScript (Rhino or Nashorn)

I know there are more JVM languages out there, but those cover the main
production ones I've ever seen. Vert.x is a good example of a Java
framework that supports most of those languages in idiomatic ways.

I like the idea of Lombok and doing more with annotations and having to
write less code as a user.

Re: With the upcoming Scala support, shall we start investigating general polyglot support?

Then we probably not have to do anything for Groovy. But maybe for Kotlin.

Another language to consider would be Clojure.

I know Groovy already has a built-in feature that makes using Log4j 2
easier:

http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/gapi/groovy/util/logging/Log4j2.html

And that's pretty similar to the Lombok feature:

https://projectlombok.org/features/Log.html

Could make sense. Otherwise people will probably create and use libraries
like https://github.com/MicroUtils/kotlin-logging which links to SLF4J.
