+/**
+ * Logger Factory service for logging information.
+ * <p>
+ * Provides methods for bundles to obtain named {@link Logger}s that can be used
+ * to write messages to the log.
+ * <p>
+ * Logger names should be in the form of a fully qualified Java class names with
+ * segments separated by full stop ({@code '.'} &#92;u002E). For example:
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * com.foo.Bar
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * Logger names exist in a hierarchy. A logger name is said to be an ancestor of
+ * another logger name if the logger name followed by a full stop ({@code '.'}
+ * &#92;u002E) is a prefix of the descendant logger name. The
+ * {@link Logger#ROOT_LOGGER_NAME root logger name} is the top ancestor of the
+ * logger name hierarchy. For example:
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * com.foo.Bar
+ * com.foo
+ * com
+ * ROOT
+ * </pre>
