------------------------------------
Summary: Migrate to Jakarta APIs
Key: LOG4J2-2978
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2978
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Dependency upgrade
Components: Web/Servlet
Affects Versions: 2.14.0
Reporter: Boris Petrov
Jakarta EE 9 is out already along with stable versions of the two most popular
containers - Tomcat 10 and Jetty 11 (running on Servlet 5.0). `log4j-web`
internally still uses `javax` (e.g.
[here|https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/blob/rel/2.14.0/log4j-web/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/log4j/web/Log4jServletContainerInitializer.java#L21])
so it is incompatible with an application that runs on these two containers.
It would be nice to release a new version that is compatible with them.
Unfortunately a single version cannot be made compatible with both the "old"
`javax` and the "new" `jakarta` namespaces so perhaps a new major one should be
released.
