java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation when application packages slf4j in JBoss EAP 7 / 6
Issue
We have excluded the logging subsystem for our application and are packaging slf4j in our application and getting this exception:
Caused by: java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving method "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder.getLoggerFactory()Lorg/slf4j/ILoggerFactory;" the class loader (instance of org/jboss/modules/ModuleClassLoader) of the current class, org/slf4j/LoggerFactory, and the class loader (instance of org/jboss/modules/ModuleClassLoader) for the method's defining class, org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder, have different Class objects for the type org/slf4j/ILoggerFactory used in the signature
