How To Install logback on CentOS 7
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install logback
on CentOS 7.
What is logback
Logback is intended as a successor to the popular log4j project. At present time, logback is divided into three modules, logback-core, logback-classic and logback-access. The logback-core module lays the groundwork for the other two modules. The logback-classic module can be assimilated to a significantly improved version of log4j. Moreover, logback-classic natively implements the SLF4J API so that you can readily switch back and forth between logback and other logging frameworks such as log4j or java.util.logging (JUL). The logback-access module integrates with Servlet containers, such as Tomcat and Jetty, to provide HTTP-access log functionality. Note that you could easily build your own module on top of logback-core.
