vaibhav singh commented on LOG4J2-1832: --------------------------------------- Ok, after hours of looking at Log4j2 apidocs I realised that I was not instantiating the LoggerConfig object properly. Instead of: LoggerConfig loggerConfig = LoggerConfig.createLogger("false", Level.ERROR, "logger", "com.*", refs, null, config, null); The loggerConfig object should be created like: LoggerConfig loggerConfig = LoggerConfig.createLogger("false", Level.ERROR, "logger", "true", refs, null, config, null); Please note that the fourth param to be passed is "includeLocation", and it has to be set to "true" for Reflection to kick in and the classname to be printed. >From the APIdoc: includeLocation - whether location should be passed downstream Maybe the documentation for the parameter could be made clearer, but for now, I think I am satisfied. So, marking this question as Resolved. > Programmatical Configuration of Log4j2 with RollingFileAppender does not > honor logging classnames > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-1832 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1832 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Question > Components: Configurators > Affects Versions: 2.7 > Environment: Ubuntu 16.04 > Reporter: vaibhav singh > Labels: beginner, features > Fix For: boot-1.0-alpha1 > > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > I am trying to programmatically configure a Log4j2 logger with a Rolling File > appender, and am seeing that classnames are not getting printed according to > the Layouts page(https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/layouts.html) > Can someone please help me understand why is it that the classname is not > getting printed?
