> PatternLayout's default charset should not be UTF-8
> ---------------------------------------------------

> Key: LOG4J2-783
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-783
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0.1
> Environment: Win8(Simplified Chinese), Tomcat 7
> Reporter: Minglei Lee
> Assignee: Remko Popma
> Labels: charset, default
> Fix For: 2.1
>
> Original Estimate: 72h
> Remaining Estimate: 72h

> According to log4j2's manual about PatternLayout's charset attribute, if the attribute is not specified, the default system Charset will be used.
> But in my environemnt (Win8 Simplified Chinese + Tomcat 7), if the attribute is not specified, the Chinese words cannot display properly in console. If I add charset="UTF-8" to <Console>'s <PatternLayout> element, the error still exists. But if I modify it to charset="GBK", the problem can be resolved.
> So I think, The default charset is UTF-8, not the default system Charset as the manual announced. I got the source file, and found it in PatternLayout's Builder inner class:
> private Charset charset = Charsets.UTF_8;
> I modify it to:
> private Charset charset = Charset.defaultCharset();
> and remove the charset attribute in XML's <PatternLayout> element, the Chinese words can display properly as expected.
> So, I think it may be a bug and reported it here.
> Thanks!
