             Summary: Add native support for using Log4j in Jetty
                 Key: LOG4J2-711
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-711
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.0
         Environment: At least Jetty 9.2, but it wouldn't be hard to support 
Jetty 8.x, possibly even Jetty 7.x
            Reporter: Matt Sicker
            Priority: Minor


Jetty provides a pretty simple [Logger 
API|http://download.eclipse.org/jetty/stable-7/apidocs/org/eclipse/jetty/util/log/Logger.html]
 which can be implemented by custom logging frameworks. You can set the 
{{"org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.class"}} system property to the FQCN of your 
logger implementation.

Jetty does provide an SLF4J-based implementation, but our SLF4J bridge doesn't 
support setting the logger level dynamically. The log4j-core Logger class, 
however, does.

There is one caveat, however. Such an implementation should probably document 
that you should NOT use the ServletAppender. This can be checked reflectively 
for the presence of the Jetty logger for at least outputting a warning message 
about it.
