Ralph Goers resolved LOG4J2-167.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 2.0-beta5
Assignee: Ralph Goers
Configurator will no longer throw a ClassCastException. Instead, it will log an
error and return null to the caller since Configurator must have a core
LoggerContext, not a SimpleLoggerContext.
> ClassCastException from SimpleLoggerContext to core.LoggerContext, since it
> implements spi.LoggerContext

> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta5
> Reporter: Eric Schellhammer
> Assignee: Ralph Goers
> Fix For: 2.0-beta5
>
>
> When calling Configurator.initialize(<Name>, null, <File>) it calls
> LogManager.getContext(loader, false) and if no logging implementation can be
> found this method returns a new SimpleLoggerContext (created by the factory
> which in turn is created in the static part of the class). This class
> implements spi.LoggerContext but the Configurator tries to cast it to
> core.LoggerContext, which fails since SimpleLoggerContext does not extend
> that class.
