The change was designed to be largely source-level compatible, but not binary-level. Is this JavaFX 8? Is it going to be re-compiled with recent JDK8? Is JavaFX 8 supposed to be compatible with both JDK7 and JDK8 ? If PlatformLogger API is supposed to be binary-compatible with non-JDK code, then we must revert this change and apply the binary-compatible one that uses switch statement. I don't know what their expectation is but as the builds aren't integrated then I would expect at least some mix 'n match. Mandy might have more context. I think (but I'm not certain) that FX has been using the PlatformLogger for performance/startup reasons but I'm not certain if there is an "agreement" to provide both source and binary compatibility going forward.
