             Summary: Support more data types in plugin attributes
                 Key: LOG4J2-598
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-598
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.0-rc1
            Reporter: Matt Sicker


Currently, annotating plugin factory method parameters with 
{{@PluginAttribute}} only supports String types, but we use a lot of plugin 
attributes that could be automatically converted to primitive types. Now I'm 
not suggesting something as advanced as how Camel handles parameter injection 
(which does automatic non-trivial type conversion), but it would be great to 
support booleans, ints, longs, etc., to simplify quite a bit of extraneous 
string parsing.
