This release provides a continuation of the modularization process of Log4j Core.

The following features were moved to separate artifacts:

  • The async logger feature was moved to log4j-async-logger and it was upgraded to use LMAX Disruptor 4.x. The async appender is still available by default in log4j-core.
  • The YAML configuration is available now in log4j-config-yaml.
  • The Java properties configuration was removed and replaced with a similar format based on jackson-dataformat-properties in a new log4j-config-properties artifact.

Other features were removed:

  • Jetty 9.x users are encouraged to migrate to Jetty 10.x or later and replace log4j-appserver with log4j-slf4j2-impl.
  • Tomcat JULI support will be available from a third-party (cf. copernik-eu/log4j-plugins).
  • Apache Commons Logging users are encouraged to upgrade commons-logging to version 1.3.0 or later and remove log4j-jcl.
  • Support for the XML layout was dropped.
  • Support for JMX was dropped and will be replaced with a more recenttechnology.

Added

  • Add and update DSLs for setting up dependency injection for test and non-test code. (#2147)
  • Add a ConfigurationExtension mechanism to allow third-party JARs to extend the <Configuration> element.
  • Add a new properties configuration factory based on jackson-dataformat-properties.
