Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-2484:
-------------------------------------
Why is this a good idea? What’s the use case?
By convention, diagnostic messages should go to STDERR so that it doesn’t
interfere with the “actual” output of a program, which goes to STDOUT.
> Allow setting of output stream on StatusLogger

> Key: LOG4J2-2484
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2484
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Robert Ross
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: StatusLogger, debugging
>
> The StatusLogger internally uses a SimpleLogger. SimpleLogger offers the
> ability to control the output stream, but StatusLogger encapsulates and hides
> this capability, always using System.err as the output stream.
> It would be useful to expose this option so that the API offers some control
> over the output stream used by StatusLogger.
