--------------------------------------
Summary: Remove default layout from KafkaAppender
Key: LOG4J2-2020
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2020
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 2.8.2
Reporter: Mikael Ståldal
Assignee: Mikael Ståldal
If you don't specify any layout to KafkaAppender, it will simply include the
log message as payload. This is not very useful and inconsistent with how other
appenders work.
It's better if there is no default layout for KafkaAppender, as will be the
case for SocketAppender and JmsAppeder now when LOG4J2-1958 is done.
