7. I think there is an error in your statement above. What do you mean the impl
classes must be public? Yes, the intention is to make the API public and give
it the same guarantee that we have to log4j-api. The only impl class users
should use is to extend AssembledConfiguration as PropertiesConfiguration does.
I believe DefaultConfigurationAssembler has to be public so
ConfigurationFactory can access it.

My proposal is to merge both packages into one in order to only have types
marked {{public}} that MUST be public. We can make them all types public later,
but for now, package private give us the flexibility to change things around in
another release.

> You could use the static method #initialize(String contextName, ClassLoader
> loader, String configLocation) in
> org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.Configurator. (You can pass null for the
> class loader.) Be aware that this class is not part of the public API so your
> code may break with any minor release.

> This documentation is unclear because it points to a member function which
> needs a filename {{configLocation}} where as the topic is »without a
> configuration file«.
> It shoud rather point to the member function
> {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.Configurator.initialize(ClassLoader
> loader, ConfigurationSource source)}}.
> Example:
> {code:java}
> import org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.ConfigurationSource;
> import org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.Configurator;
> final String hardCodedXmlConfig =
> "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>\n" +
> "<Configuration status='INFO'>\n" +
> " <Appenders>\n" +
> " <Console name='Console' target='SYSTEM_OUT'>\n" +
> " <PatternLayout pattern='%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level
> %logger{36} - %msg%n'/>\n" +
> " </Console>\n" +
> " </Appenders>\n" +
> " <Loggers>\n" +
> " <Root level='debug'>\n" +
> " <AppenderRef ref='Console'/>\n" +
> " </Root>\n" +
> " </Loggers>\n" +
> "</Configuration>\n";
> try {
> Configurator.initialize(null, new ConfigurationSource(new
> ByteArrayInputStream(hardCodedXmlConfig.getBytes())));
> } catch (IOException e) {
> e.printStackTrace();
> }
