Need to choose a logging strategy #635

@ThrawnCA

Description

@ThrawnCA

The SpotBugs codebase includes examples of:

  • JDK 1.4+ built-in logging, eg in edu.umd.cs.findbugs.FindBugs and edu.umd.cs.findbugs.gui2.MainFrameComponentFactory
  • Multiple incompatible hand-rolled logging setups, based on edu.umd.cs.findbugs.classfile.IErrorLogger and edu.umd.cs.findbugs.log.Logger
  • STDOUT/STDERR logging, all over the place. Note that @spotbugs-bot marks this as a major defect.

We should choose a preferred logging style and stick to it.
