Volkan Yazici commented on LOG4J2-3263:
---------------------------------------
[~melix], thanks so much for the heads up! Mind submitting a PR against the
{{release-2.x}} branch, please?
> Incorrect documentation about Gradle
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-3263
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3263
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Documentation
> Reporter: Cédric Champeau
> Priority: Major
>
> The docs mention the use of the `compile` configuration, which has been
> deprecated for several years now, and has been removed in Gradle 7. Instead
> the samples should use `implementation`:
>
> {code:java}
> dependencies {
> implementation "org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-api:2.17.0"
> implementation "org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core:2.17.0"
> }
> {code}
>
>
> The documentation for using the BOM states:
>
> "To use this with Gradle, an additional [Gradle
> plugin|https://github.com/spring-gradle-plugins/dependency-management-plugin]
> is required for dependency management functionality."
>
> which is incorrect since Gradle 5, where you can simply write:
>
> {code:java}
> dependencies {
> implementation platform("org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-bom")
> implementation "org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-api"
> implementation "org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core"
> }
> {code}
>
