[jira] [Closed] (LOG4J2-321) Provide configuration alternative to system properties

["Remko Popma (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Remko Popma closed LOG4J2-321.
------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

Closing this issue. 

This is technically challenging with the current design: Log4jContextSelector is used to create a LoggerContext, which then loads and owns a Configuration. So the AsyncLoggerContext is created before the configuration file is read which makes it hard to modify the AsyncLoggerContext based on values from the configuration...

> Some components behaviour cannot be configured in the configuration file but only with System properties. There is a strong preference to ensure all behaviour can be configured in the configuration file.
> Properties that can be used to configure AsyncLoggers when all loggers are Async:
> * Log4jContextSelector=org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerContextSelector
> * AsyncLogger.ExceptionHandler
> * AsyncLogger.RingBufferSize
> * AsyncLogger.WaitStrategy
> * log4j.Clock - currently only used for timestamping RingBufferLogEvents. 
> Question: Should all LogEvents use this clock?
> The following system properties can be used to configure mixed Async Loggers:
> * AsyncLoggerConfig.ExceptionHandler	
> * AsyncLoggerConfig.RingBufferSize
> * AsyncLoggerConfig.WaitStrategy
> For JMX there is only the one "disable" property, in the mailing list it was suggested to make this into an element rather than an attribute to future-proof it.
