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

             Summary: Add documentation about plugin builders compared to 
factories
                 Key: LOG4J2-1411
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1411
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Documentation
          Components: Plugins
    Affects Versions: 2.6
            Reporter: Matt Sicker
            Assignee: Matt Sicker


The plugin builder annotations are provided as an alternative to the original 
plugin factory method pattern which is useful for when a plugin requires more 
than a couple parameters (especially core plugins that may be changed in future 
releases).

The "Extending Log4j" page should include notes about plugin factories versus 
plugin builders. All examples on that page are in the factory format, so an 
additional example using builders would also help.
