--------------------------------------
Summary: Integrate Log4J with Java 9's platform logging API
Key: LOG4J2-2183
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2183
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Nicolai Parlog
[JEP 264: Platform Logging API and Service|http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/264]
introduced an API around [`java.lang.System.Logger` and
`java.lang.System.LoggerFinder`|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/lang/System.LoggerFinder.html]
that the JDK uses to log internal messages, e.g. those from Swing and JavaFX
(this does not extend to JVM logging). Third-party loggers like Log4J can
integrate with this via
[services|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html],
so they can become the backend for these messages (instead of JUL).
Adapting to this API is not very hard - here's a [proof of concept for
SLF4J|https://github.com/nicolaiparlog/slf4j/commit/e0c7780bdae254535a6e9c053b2af564085ffe3b].
