-------------------------------------
Sorry for the late reply.
My suggestion is to elaborate on dependencies right below the main chapter
titled "Maven, Ivy, and Gradle Artifacts". There I would state, that log4j2 got
split in a core and api dependency with the basic idea to have a former as
runtime dependency. However, due to technical reasons, e.g. fast
startup/annotation processing, the core dependency should (and must) be listed
as compile time and not as runtime dependency for now and until further notice.
Having suggested this, I'm fine with closing this case.

> Key: LOG4J2-797
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-797
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2
> Environment: http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/maven-artifacts.html
> Reporter: whaefelinger
> Priority: Minor
>
> The documentation (website:
> http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/maven-artifacts.html) lists "log4j-core"
> as compile dependency (Gradle).
> While this at not wrong, it does not hit the idea of api/core separation.
> Thus I suggest to list "log4j-core" as runtime dependency, i.e.
> {code}
> dependencies {
> compile group: 'org.apache.logging.log4j', name: 'log4j-api', version:
> '2.0.2'
> runtime group: 'org.apache.logging.log4j', name: 'log4j-core', version:
> '2.0.2'
> }
> {code}
