This is a vote to release Log4j 2.0-rc1, the twelfth release of Log4j
2.0.
This release contains several changes that break binary and backwards
compatibility with previous versions. Please read the release notes
correctly so that you can adjust your usage of Log4j 2, if necessary.
Changes in this version include:
New features:
o LOG4J2-530: (JMX) JMX Client GUI should dynamically update when
LoggerContext MBeans are registered/unregistered in MBean server.
o LOG4J2-479: ThreadContext now uses plain ThreadLocal by default,
unless system property isThreadContextMapInheritable has value "true".
Thanks to MK.
o LOG4J2-481: Add Stream interface to Loggers. Thanks to Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-482: Documentation fix: The attribute of Route to refer to
an appender is "ref" not "AppenderRef". Thanks to Hongdi Ren.
o LOG4J2-467: Added option to toggle Thread name caching in
AsyncLogger. Thanks to Anthony Baldocchi.
o LOG4J2-423: Added MBeans for instrumenting AsyncAppenders and
AsyncLogger RingBuffers, exposing queue size, remaining capacity and
other attributes.
o LOG4J2-420: Create a lookup for resource bundle substitution.
o LOG4J2-415: Format log event time as UNIX time (seconds or
milliseconds).
o LOG4J2-401: Configure FileAppender buffer size.
o LOG4J2-402: Configure RandomAccessFileAppender buffer size.
Fixed Bugs:
o LOG4J2-500: (JMX - ObjectNames changed!) Unloading one web
application unloads JMX MBeans for all web applications.
o LOG4J2-531: Fixed bugs where rolled log files were overwritten by
RollingFile appender with composite time and size based policies.
Thanks to Geoff Ballinger.
o LOG4J2-475: Changed the MongoDBConnection to add a MongoDB encoding
hook instead of a decoding hook. Thanks to Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-489: Fixed the JPAAppender's overuse of transactions by
connecting (borrowing from pool) on new write internal or on flush.
o LOG4J2-457: Fixed failure of JDBC and JPA appender to properly
release database connections by connecting (borrowing from pool) on
new write internal or on flush.
o LOG4J2-442: Fixed problem with JDBC and JPA appender connectivity
in WebSphere by connecting (borrowing from pool) on new write internal
or on flush.
o LOG4J2-438: Ensured the JDBCAppender commits transactions after a
single write or a flush of multiple writes.
o LOG4J2-407: Fixed inability to recover from lost database
connection in database appenders by connecting (borrowing from pool)
on new write internal or on flush.
o LOG4J2-511: Stop AsyncLoggerConfig Disruptor thread(s), then
AsyncAppender thread(s) first before stopping other appenders. Thanks
to James Pretorius.
o LOG4J2-392: Stop AsyncLoggerConfig Disruptor thread(s), then
AsyncAppender thread(s) first before stopping other appenders. Thanks
to ilynaf, Andre Bogus.
o LOG4J2-345: (OSGi) logging.log4j-1.2-api doesn't export the log4j
API 1.2. Dependent bundles can not be resolved. Thanks to Roland
Weiglhofer, Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-523: LocalizedMessage serialization is broken.
o LOG4J2-385: Fixed issues with time-based file rollover (monthly,
weekly, hourly and every minute). Thanks to Ace Funk, Porfirio
Partida.
o LOG4J2-452: Added a ServletContext attribute that, when set to
"true", disables Log4j's auto-initialization in Servlet 3.0+ web
applications.
o LOG4J2-512: Exposed Log4j web support interface and methods and the
LoggerContext through ServletContext attributes so that threads not
affected by filters (such as asynchronous threads) can utilize the
LoggerContext. Also updated the Log4j filter so that it supports
async. Thanks to Chandra Sekhar Kakarla, Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-409: Created a utility to properly escape backslashes before
creating URIs, and changed URI creation to use the utility instead of
instantiating URI directly. Thanks to Frank Steinmann, Thomas
Neidhart.
o LOG4J2-344: Changed the Servlet 3.0 auto-initializer to add the
filter by class to get around a WebLogic bug. Thanks to Keir Lawson,
Tomasz Wladzinski.
o LOG4J2-359: Changed the Servlet 3.0 auto-initializer so that it
does nothing in a Servlet 2.5 or older application. This ensures
behavioral consistency across containers. This includes additional
fixes to abort initialization if a duplicate filter already exists and
to check the actual Servlet EFFECTIVE version. Thanks to Abhinav Shah.
o LOG4J2-517: Switch in log4j-1.2-api Category.getEffectiveLevel has
no cases for FATAL, OFF.
o LOG4J2-406: (JMX) Unregister all log4j JMX MBeans when the
LoggerContext is stopped to allow web application classes to be GC-ed
on undeploy. Thanks to Kerrigan Joseph.
o LOG4J2-405: Configuration was being processed twice at startup.
o LOG4J2-398: Configure properties and setup Interpolator before
processing rest of configuration.
o LOG4J2-470: hostName property was not being set until after the
first configuration element.
o LOG4J2-464: Support arrays as sub-elements of a JSON configuration.
o LOG4J2-492: (JMX) Fixed MalformedObjectNameException if context
name contains '=' or newline characters. Thanks to Shaddy Baddah,
Herlani Junior.
o LOG4J2-377: (OSGi) Fix NPE during shutdown. Thanks to Roland
Weiglhofer, Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-463: Fixed documentation for MyApp example application in
the Automatic Configuration section Thanks to Michael Diamond, Matt
Sicker.
o LOG4J2-408: Fixed error in documentation code example in
manual/eventlogging.html Thanks to Dongqing Hu, Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-451: Fixed typo in documentation: system property should be
log4j2.loggerContextFactory Thanks to Vinay Pothnis, Matt Sicker.
o LOG4J2-443: Fixed issue where log4j2 LoggerContext did not show up
in JMX GUI or JConsole. Thanks to Colin Froggatt, Tudor Har.
o LOG4J2-485: Fixed issue where toString methods that perform logging
could deadlock AsyncAppender.
o LOG4J2-445: ResolverUtil cannot find packages in file URLs which
include the '+' character. Thanks to Anthony Baldocchi.
o LOG4J2-430: Use the formatted Message in RFC5424Layout for
non-StructuredDataMessages. Thanks to David Gstir.
o LOG4J2-459: Set external context when constructing the
LoggerContext.
o LOG4J2-466: Cannot load log4j2 config file if path contains plus
'+' characters. Thanks to Jan Tepke.
o LOG4J2-462: Fix LogEvent to never return null Level, fixes
LevelPatternConverter.format may throw NPE. Thanks to Daisuke Baba.
o LOG4J2-465: Fix LogEvent to never return null Level, fixes
ThresholdFilter throws NPE. Thanks to Daisuke Baba.
o LOG4J2-471: Fixed issue where toString methods that perform logging
could deadlock AsyncLogger. Thanks to Anthony Baldocchi.
o LOG4J2-478: The message and ndc fields are not JavaScript escaped
in JSONLayout. Thanks to Michael Friedmann..
o LOG4J2-455: RingBufferLogEvent should return Message timestamp for
TimestampMessage messages. Thanks to Robin Zhang Tao.
o LOG4J2-477: NPE in ClassLoaderContextSelector. Thanks to Tal Liron.
o LOG4J2-454: TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy should use event time millis.
Thanks to Robin Zhang Tao.
o LOG4J2-472: BaseConfiguration class does not properly implement
Configuration interface. Thanks to Tal Liron.
o LOG4J2-447: XMLLayout does not include marker name. Thanks to Jeff
Hudren, Mark Paluch, Scott Deboy.
o LOG4J2-323: Resolved memory leak by releasing reference to
ThreadLocal when AsyncLogger is stopped.
o LOG4J2-425: Resolved memory leak by populating
AsyncLoggerConfigHelper ring buffer via EventTranslatorTwoArg,
eliminating the need for a ThreadLocal.
o LOG4J2-417: Fix Event Level / LoggerConfig Level table at the
architecture documentation page.
o LOG4J2-404: @EnterpriseNumber" was missing in the ID of structured
data when RFC5424Layout is used Thanks to Kamal Bahadur.
