I am attempting to create a program in Java using Netbeans. I am attempting to use org.slf4j. I think I have placed the sufficient amount of slf4j jar files in my CLASS PATH. I have placed slf4j-api, slf4j-jcl, slf4j-jdk14, slf4j-nop and slf4j-simple in my class path.
My question is: Am i placing the wrong jar files in my class path, the Zip file for the slf4j folder included a large amount of jar files. Why are there so many executable jar files included for SLF4J.
Ultimately, the program needs to compare 2 pdf files at a time and spit out an error message if the files are different. Would anyone know if there is anything out there that I can include so I don't have to deal with this SLF4J package. Below is where I am attempting to run the package.
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

Set Dependencies as follows.
In Maven
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
<version>version number</version>
</dependency>
In Gradle
dependencies {
compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-api', version: 'version number'
}
In Gradle add the following dependencies:
implementation 'org.slf4j:slf4j-api:1.7.28'
implementation 'org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.7.28'
The last one dependency needs to be added to Resolve "Failed to load class org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder"
In build.gladle ( the second one ) look at dependencies and add this line:
dependencies {
...
implementation 'org.apache.directory.studio:org.slf4j.api:1.7.2'
}
