An optional interface helping integration with logging systems capable of extracting location information. This interface is mainly used by SLF4J bridges such as jcl-over-slf4j, jul-to-slf4j and log4j-over-slf4j or Logger wrappers which need to provide hints so that the underlying logging system can extract the correct location information (method name, line number).
