Summary: JNDI Lookup plugin support
Key: LOG4J2-313
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-313
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Woonsan Ko
Fix For: 2.0-beta9
Currently, Lookup plugins [1] don't support JNDI resources.
It would be really convenient to support JNDI resource lookup in the
configuration.
One use case with JNDI lookup plugin is as follows:
I'd like to use RoutingAppender [2] to put all the logs from the same web
application context in a log file (a log file per web application context).
And, I want to use JNDI resources look up to determine the target route
(similarly to JNDI context selector of logback [3]).
Determining the target route by JNDI lookup can be advantageous because we
don't have to add any code to set properties for the thread context and JNDI
lookup should always work even in a separate thread without copying thread
context variables.
