[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-567) Documentation - need more clarity.

["Ralph Goers (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-567?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13933416#comment-13933416 ] 

Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-567:
------------------------------------

Please see http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/configuration.html#XML, the first paragraph after the list of configuration attributes, and the section titled "Strict XML".  I'm not sure how to better document this than what is there now.  

To be clear, in the "normal" configuration you would use the plugin name as the element name in the XML.  In strict mode the element name would be "Appender", "Filter", "Layout", etc and you have to specify an extra attribute with the plugin name.

> Can you please help on the documentation.
> I am unable to find proper documentation for Log4j2 xml configurations.
> For example:
> What is the need for define "strict-="true" ? in the configuration element.
> If define strict="true", some element declarations are different. So where do I find the documentation for this ?
> I am little confused, need to know which is the right way of configuring elements ?  Can you advise.
