Most of the methods in DOMConfigurator require a LoggerRepository. While the interface is present in the Log4j 1.2 adapter, it isn’t really implemented anywhere as it was replaced by the LoggerContext in Log4j 2 and implementing something to emulate it would be somewhat problematic due to how Loggers and their configuration are separate in Log4j 2. Furthermore, the methods that accept configuration would be assuming a Log4j 1.x configuration. I don’t believe the support for that is implemented yet. PropertyConfigurator would also require a LoggerRepository. It also requires Log4j 1.x format configuration files. Support for that is not fully implemented yet. BasicConfigurator only has 3 methods, one of which is implemented. configure(Appender appender) requires a Log4j 1.x Appender, which Log4j 2 doesn’t currently support. resetConfiguration() could be easily implemented.
