MK commented on LOG4J2-479:
---------------------------
Yes, this is the desired behavior and yes, ThreadContext.clear() does what I
want, but how am I going to remember to put that line in every possible place
where I'm using a thread pool? I'm working on a relatively small code base and
can immediately think of 3 completely different thread pools. Shouldn't the
logging library be getting out of my way in simple matters like this?
> Use of InheritableThreadLocal in Map ThreadContext is dangerous and unhelpful

> Key: LOG4J2-479
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-479
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: MK
>
> Described here http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/thread-context.html
> The use of InheritableThreadLocal creates subtle and hard to track bugs while
> not really adding much useful. It is counterintuitive -- I don't see why
> would anyone expect logging context to be inherited. But it breaks down
> completely when used with Thread Executors.
