[jira] [Created] (LOG4J2-3504) Remove base64 variable substiton feature from documentation of 2.x releases

oskarryn created LOG4J2-3504:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Remove base64 variable substiton feature from documentation of 2.x releases
                 Key: LOG4J2-3504
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3504
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 2.17.2
            Reporter: oskarryn


The base64 lookup feature is not available for log4j 2.x, yet it appears in docs in [PropertySubstitution|https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/configuration.html#PropertySubstitution] section (first row in the table).

Not sure what was the reason to add the docs without the code change. I suggest removing the documentation for base64 variable substitution from 2.x releases if the feature is not available yet. I was misled (LOG4J2-3478), so correction would be helpful.
