[ANNOUNCEMENT] Apache Log4j 2.10.0 released

[Ralph Goers]

The Apache Log4j 2 team is pleased to announce the Log4j 2.10.0 release!

Apache Log4j is a well known framework for logging application behavior. Log4j 
2 is an upgrade to Log4j that provides significant improvements over its 
predecessor, Log4j 1.x, and provides many other modern features such as support 
for Markers, lambda expressions for lazy logging, property substitution using 
Lookups, multiple patterns on a PatternLayout and asynchronous Loggers. Another 
notable Log4j 2 feature is the ability to be "garbage-free" (avoid allocating 
temporary objects) while logging. In addition, Log4j 2 will not lose events 
while reconfiguring.

This release contains new features, bugfixes and minor enhancements. Some of 
the new features include support for the Java 9 module system, support for the 
new SLF4j 1.8 binding mechanism, simplification of the Log4j property naming 
scheme, and native support of Jetty's logger. Log4j API is now a fully 
compliant Java 9 module while the other Log4j jars are Java 9 named automatic 
modules. 

This release supports both SLF4J 1.7.x and SLF4J 1.8.x. Because SLF4J 1.7.x 
requires implementations to include classes in the org.slf4j.impl package 
log4j-sl4j-impl cannot be used as a Java 9 module. Support for SLF4J 1.7.x will 
be removed in a future release.

As of Log4j 2.9.0, the Log4j API was modified to use java.util.ServiceLoader to 
locate Log4j implementations, although the former binding mechanism is still 
supported. The Log4j API jar is now a multi-release jar to provide 
implementations of Java 9 specific classes. Multi-release jars are not 
supported by the OSGi specification so OSGi modules will not be able to take 
advantage of these implementations but will not lose functionality as they will 
fall back to the implementations used in Java 7 and 8. More details on the new 
features and fixes are itemized below. Note that some tools are not compatible 
with multi-release jars and may fail trying to process class files in the 
META-INF/versions/9 folder. Those errors should be reported to the tool vendor.

During testing of the release it was found that one unit test fails when run on 
Windows. When building from source either use “mvn clean install -DskipTests” 
on Windows or run the build on a different operating system. The unit test 
failure is a problem in the test, not in Log4j. As always, pre-built 
distributions can be downloaded from http://www.apache.org/dist/logging/log4j/ 
or the binaries jars may be obtained from the Maven central repository.

Note that subsequent to the 2.9.0 release, for security reasons, 
SerializedLayout is deprecated and no longer used as default in the Socket and 
JMS appenders. SerializedLayout can still be used as before, but has to be 
specified explicitly. To retain old behaviour, you have to change configuration 
like:


  


into:


  

  


We do, however, discourage the use of SerializedLayout and recommend JsonLayout 
as a replacement:


  

  


Note that subsequent to the 2.9.0 release, for security reasons, Log4j does not 
process DTD in XML files. If you used DTD for including snippets, you have to 
use XInclude or Composite Configuration instead.

The Log4j 2.10.0 API, as well as many core components, maintains binary 
compatibility with previous releases.

GA Release 2.10.0

Changes in this version include:

New Features

• LOG4J2-2120: Properly escape newlines and other control characters in 
JSON. Thanks to Carter Douglas Kozak.
• LOG4J2-2109: Add property to disable message pattern converter 
lookups. Thanks to Carter Douglas Kozak.
• LOG4J2-2112: MapMessage should use deep toString for values. Thanks 
to Carter Douglas Kozak.
• LOG4J2-2103: XML encoding for PatternLayout.
• LOG4J2-2114: Provide a native Log4j 2 implementation of Eclipse 
Jetty's org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.Logger.
• LOG4J2-1203: Allow filtering of line breaks in layout pattern. Thanks 
to Robert Turner.
• LOG4J2-2098: Add a noop AppenderSkeleton for applications still using 
Log4j 1.x.
• LOG4J2-2062: Add possibility of sending the key of a message to Kafka 
using KafkaAppender. Thanks to Jorge Sanchez.
• LOG4J2-2056: Modularize Log4j-api and make most other log4j jars 
automatic modules.
• LOG4J2-1431: Simplify log4j system property naming scheme.
• LOG4J2-1809: Add global configuration environment SPI.
• LOG4J2-1694: Add fields with fixed values to JSON/XML/YAML layouts. 
Thanks to Michal Dvořák.
• LOG4J2-2054: Provide ways to configure SSL that avoid plain-text 
passwords in the log4j configuration. The configuration may now specify a 
system environment variable that holds the password, or the path to a file that 
holds the password.
• LOG4J2-2071: Add 
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.composite.CompositeConfiguration#toString().
 Thanks to Carter Kozak.

Fixed Bugs

• LOG4J2-2107: MapMessage supports both
