## Description PR #2941 introduces some basic logging of the most important `Configuration` lifecycle events at an `INFO` level. The messages are meant to convey: - which configuration file is used. - the last modification timestamp of the file to distinguish between two revisions of the same file. Unfortunately this information only appears in `XmlConfiguration`: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/blob/86781fd8a7d8c07509ba9e430c08333fd82f34bf/log4j-core/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/log4j/core/config/xml/XmlConfiguration.java#L340-L343 `JsonConfiguration` only prints the name of the configuration file, while `PropertiesConfiguration` does not have a `toString()` method at all: ``` 2025-04-04T19:10:16.058147325Z pool-10-thread-1 INFO Stopping configuration org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.properties.PropertiesConfiguration@18765d9b... 2025-04-04T19:10:16.058147313Z pool-9-thread-1 INFO Stopping configuration org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.properties.PropertiesConfiguration@18f5f66d... 2025-04-04T19:10:16.058631896Z pool-10-thread-1 INFO Configuration org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.properties.PropertiesConfiguration@18765d9b stopped. 2025-04-04T19:10:16.058880638Z pool-9-thread-1 INFO Configuration org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.properties.PropertiesConfiguration@18f5f66d stopped. ``` We probably should add the `toString()` method to `AbstractConfiguration` and remove it from its derived classes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
