Apache Log4j Tools team is pleased to announce the 0.8.0 release. This project provides tooling internally used by the Apache Log4j project. For further information (support, download, etc.) see the project website[1].
[1] https://logging.apache.org/log4j/tools === Release Notes This release delivers the first version of Log4j Docgen (Documentation Generator). It is a set of tools to auto-generate the Log4j plugin documentation (to be integrated into the website) and the Log4j configuration XSD file (for assisting the configuration of the Log4j runtime, i.e., `log4j2.xml`) from the Log4j source code. See the project website for details. ==== Added * Add the `log4j-docgen` et al. containing a universal XML model to document Log4j plugins ==== Changed * Move Log4j Changelog XML namespace and schema location to `https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns` and `https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns/log4j-changelog-0.xsd`, respectively ==== Removed * Remove `author` from Log4j Changelog. It was yet another bit to maintain and created role-related (who did what) problems. Many modern software projects use a VCS (e.g., Git) and support services (e.g., GitHub) which make it trivial to trace back the origin of a change using commit and issue IDs. ==== Updated * Update `org.apache.logging:logging-parent` to version `10.6.0` * Update `jakarta.inject:jakarta.inject-api` to version `2.0.1` (#94) * Update `org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core` to version `2.23.1` (#108) * Update `org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-plugins` to version `3.0.0-beta2` (#107) * Update `org.apache.maven.plugin-tools:maven-plugin-annotations` to version `3.11.0` (#98) * Update `org.assertj:assertj-core` to version `3.25.3` (#104) * Update `org.codehaus.modello:modello-maven-plugin` to version `2.3.0` (#105) * Update `org.junit:junit-bom` to version `5.10.2` (#103)
