--------------------------------------

This is the change I made to ConfigurationFactory that makes it work for us.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-794
>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Configurators
>    Affects Versions: 2.0, 2.0.1
>         Environment: Windows 7
>            Reporter: John Lussmyer
>
> We've set the System Property "log4j.configurationFile" to be 
> {{"C:\\Repo\\Metrix\\Logs Two\\Metrix.xml"}}
> When ConfigurationFactory.getInputFromString() tries to load it, it fails.
> This appears to be due to the attempt to open it as a simple file,
> "final File file = new File(config)"
> passes the string {{"file:C:\\Repo\\Metrix\\Logs Two\\Metrix.xml"}}, which 
> File() does not understand.
> This results in:
> {code}
> java.io.FileNotFoundException: file:C:\Repo\Metrix\Logs Two\Metrix.xml (The 
> filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)
> {code}
> (Note: This is actually with the log4j 2.0.1 jar files, but the "Affects 
> Version" won't let me use that version.)
