I’ve created a proposal JIRA KARAF-7307 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-7307 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-7307>) to track any specifics.
As the subject mentions— I think it would be beneficial to users to change the default configuration for log4j2 to XML (or maybe JSON). Notes: 1. Documentation for the properties format is fragmented and incomplete— especially for advanced features such as routing, etc 2. XML format is the more natural format for log4j2 3. Allow for developers targeting karaf runtime to use the same log4j2.xml config file in their dev projects that is used in karaf runtime (using a org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg requires developers to add add’l configuration to their code projects) Thoughts? Thanks, Matt
