How to find which library slf4j has bound itself to?
Just do what SLF4J does to discover the binding: final StaticLoggerBinder binder = StaticLoggerBinder.getSingleton(); Now you can try to find out what is the actual implementation logback in my case: System.out.println(binder.getLoggerFactory()); System.out.println(binder.getLoggerFactoryClassStr()); This prints: ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext[default] ch.qos.logback.classic.selector.DefaultContextSelector
