Luca Burgazzoli commented on LOG4J2-1094:
-----------------------------------------
I understand but you can also understand that you cannot be sure that someone
call LogManager.get* in the main thread for you (i.e. you develop a library
that depends on log4j2 so you do not have the control on how it is used but you
depend on logging statement to understand what your library is doing and
support your users).
That said I wonder if you can add something like:
- create a synchronized factory you can activate with a system property
- log a warning if a logger is used when the system is not fully initialized
with the option to enable, disable this feature with a system property (logback
does something similar if I'm not mistaking so you are at least noticed that
some message may have been lost)

> Key: LOG4J2-1094
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1094
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Reporter: Luca Burgazzoli
>
> I wrote a very simple example which has a behaviour I do not expect:
> If I call LogManager.getLogger(..) from two threads, only one of the loggers
> logs what I'd expect but if I add an additional call to
> LogManager.getLogger(..) before the threads are started, I see what I'd
> expect so it looks like there is a problem in multi threaded initialization.
> You can fine the code and the configuration here:

> The code above will show:
> {noformat}
> write thread-1
> done thread-1
> write thread-2
> [TEST] [INFO ] thread-2 - message
> done thread-2
> {noformat}
> Any call to LogManager makes it succeed:
> {code}
> LogManager.getContext(false);
> th1.start();
> th2.start();
> th1.join();
> th2.join();
> {code}
> New output:
> {noformat}
> write thread-2
> write thread-1
> [TEST] [INFO ] thread-2 - message
> done thread-2
> [TEST] [INFO ] thread-1 - message
> done thread-1
> {noformat}
> The funny thing is that the first thread to arrive is initialized with ERROR
> level instead of the ALL that is given to root. In other words it seems that
> the config has not loaded
