well, the current documentation is misleading. it should say that it is a 
log4j-api-slf4j-impl 
and it should probably have *note* to add log4j-core as runtime dependency. e.g.

The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding description should be updated at 
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/log4j-slf4j-impl/index.html
From:
The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding allows applications coded to the SLF4J API to use 
Log4j 2 as the implementation.
To:
The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding allows applications coded to the SLF4J API to use

and maybe under Usage section: put a note, that most user's will probably add 
*log4j-core* as a *runtime* dependency.

yes, but the idea is to have *ONE* dependency that will send Slf4j logs to 
Log4j 2 (core) - even if it goes from slf4j to log4j-api to log4j-core, hence 
my suggestion for log4j-core-slf4j-impl,. So I would like a module (artifact) 
like: slf4j-to-log4j-api-to-log4j-core or log4j-api-slf4j-impl-to-log4j-core

So how about adding a log4j-core-slf4j-impl POM only module, that has 
dependency on both log4j-slf4j-impl and log4j-core?

FYI, the description of the Log4j 2 SLF4J binding at 
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/log4j-slf4j-impl/index.html
States:
  The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding allows applications coded to the SLF4J API to use 
Log4j 2 as the implementation.

>From that statement, I interpreted "Log4j 2 *implementation*" as log4j-core.
So, it should be reword to "Log4j 2 API" and under Usage section of that page, 
there should be a note that you would still need to add log4j-core.

Additionally, on that page it says: Use of the Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding 
(log4j-slf4j-impl-2.0.jar) together with the SLF4J adapter 
(log4j-to-slf4j-2.0.jar) should never be attempted, as it will cause events to 
endlessly be routed between SLF4J and Log4j 2.

aka, ONE SHOULD NEVER use log4j-slf4j-impl and log4j-slf4j-impl (which counters 
your future proofing statement).

Generally, I don't think projects would route Slf4j logs to Log4j2 API then to 
Log4j 2 core impl.
E.g. in my case I want to route Slf4j logs to Log4j 2 (impl - not API).

But I can see your point for "future-proofing" so how about a 
log4j-core-slf4j-impl POM only module, that has dependency on log4j-core and 
log4j-slf4j-impl ?

I really think log4j-slf4j-impl should have runtime dependency on log4j-core 
(yes, I can get around it by including both in my pom.xml but that is another

Same NPE in v2.7, can this fix be back-ported to 2.7.1?

> Users have different requirements for selecting the files to clean up. A

> Another factor to consider is that the directory containing the log files may

[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-1474) CronTriggeringPolicy raise exception and fail to rollover log file when checkOnStartup is true.

I also see this issue using v2.6.2 the cause of the InvocationTargetException 
is a NullPointerException
 at CronTriggeringPolicy.rollover(CronTriggeringPolicy.java:128)
 at CronTriggeringPolicy.initialize(CronTriggeringPolicy.java:69)
 at CompositeTriggeringPolicy.initialize(CompositeTriggeringPolicy.java:49)

Looking at source code, looks like the the if (checkOnStartup) block is 
executed before the future variable has been initialized, hence the NPE.
