Gary Gregory commented on LOG4J2-1636:
--------------------------------------

This is pretty bad WRT performance and our GC-free epic. I'm not sure I would 
support such a change. If anything I could see re-coding the 
{{ConsoleAppender}} such that is would ask the layout to encode to a {{String}} 
instead of to a {{byte[]}} and then print that on the print stream. A big 
change though. I'm not sure what kind of traction this would get here. The 
change Ralph mentions about a component knowing its parent at build time is 
something more generally useful and fitting within the current architecture. 
The changes to the {{ConsoleAppender}} would be minimal. To be sure, this 
change requires knowledge of Log4j internals.

> Console Appender does not pick up Oracle Java 8's sun.stdout.encoding and 
> sun.stderr.encoding

>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Appenders, Layouts
>         Environment: Windows
>            Reporter: Eldar Gabdullin
>            Assignee: Gary Gregory

> The Oracle Java 8 platform supports two system properties to configure the 
> System console: sun.stdout.encoding and sun.stderr.encoding.
> ----
> Default log4j configuration prints to console using platform's default 
> encoding, however that's not what standard windows console expects.
> I.e.
> {code}
> System.out.println("Поехали"); // works just fine
> System.out.write("Поехали!\n".getBytes(Charset.defaultCharset())); // 
> characters are messed up
> log.info("Поехали"); // messed up in the same way
> {code}
> This happens not just on one machine, but on all Windows desktops and servers 
> in our organization.
> Can we have out of the box Layout/Appender which prints directly to 
> System.out/err?
