Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-19:
-----------------------------------
If it is agreed that a container such as Spring should be used then the wiring
of PatternConverters should take advantage of that. Thus users would only need
to add the configuration of their converter.
> Provide looser coupling of PatternConverters

> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Layouts
> Reporter: Ralph Goers
>
> Currently, PatternLayout calls PatternParser which knows about the various
> PatternConverters, many of which are imbedded in it. This makes it difficult
> for users to add their own Converters.
> In the logging framework I created each converter identified the conversion
> characters it supported. Each PatternConverter was required to supply a
> getKeys() method that returned this list. The equivalent of the PatternLayout
> contained an array of PatternConverters. During initialization each of these
> would be called and the list of keys recorded along with the associated
> converter. To add your own converter all that was necessary was to extend the
> class and add your new keys to the list of recorded keys along with their
> converters. The base PatternLayout would then take care of calling the
> correct converters as necessary.
