Gary Gregory commented on LOG4J2-2133: -------------------------------------- With KISS I was trying to say that if the goal is to make Log4j ubiquitous we should remove support for Java 9 modules. If modules end up being popular then tooling like Android and Maven will catch up. Until then we are just breaking bjilds. > Log4J 2 appears incompatible with Android platform due to inclusion of Java 9 > classes (class file version 53) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-2133 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2133 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Wish > Components: API > Affects Versions: 2.9.1, 2.10.0 > Reporter: Oleg Kalnichevski > Attachments: Screenshot from 2017-11-28 09-41-37.png > > > Log4J 2 appears incompatible with Android platform due to inclusion of Java 9 > classes (class file version 53). Please see screenshot attached. > I fully admit that there might be a way to make Android ignore those files > but it is still disheartening that Log4J 2 APIs have dependencies on things > that go beyond providing a thin logging abstraction layer. > Oleg -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
