Gary D. Gregory commented on LOG4J2-3381:
-----------------------------------------

You can try 2.17.2-SNAPSHOT where I recently added support for this API. I would be good to know if the SNAPSHOT works for your use case.

>          Issue Type: Question
>            Reporter: Jitin Dominic
>            Priority: Major
>
> During upgrading log4j2 in grails 2.5.4 application, I removed all log4j 1.2.17 dependencies and added following dependencies pertaining to v2.17.1:
>  * log4j-api
>  * log4j-core
>  * log4j-1.2-api
>  * log4j-slf4j-impl
>  
> I'm trying to read my _log4j2.properties_ file programmatically. We are using PropertyConfigurator.configure() to configure the logger. 
>  
> But I noticed in the [documentation|https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/migration.html] that Log4j 1.x bridge has some limitations and we can't use it for programmatic configuration. 
> Is there any alternative way to configure logger programmatically without using PropertyConfigurator?
