-----------------------------------
Summary: LogBuilder should not have no-op default methods
Key: LOG4J2-2947
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2947
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Wish
Reporter: Marcono1234
Currently the methods of the interface {{org.apache.logging.log4j.LogBuilder}}
are all default methods which are no-op.
In my opinion this is not ideal because these no-op implementations should
*only* exist for the {{LogBuilder.NOOP}}, or for any methods in the future
which not every logger supports.
With the current situation it is easy to forget implementing one of the
{{LogBuilder}} methods.
If you choose to keep this {{LogBuilder}} behaviour, it would be good to
document this. Though this would then create confusion for the end-user because
the {{LogBuilder}} returned by {{Logger}} is actually not no-op (which also
shows that the {{LogBuilder}} methods should probably not be no-op by default
in the first place).
