[jira] [Resolved] (LOG4J2-422) DriverManager for JDBC Appender should have argument for explicit Driver class

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-422?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Nick Williams resolved LOG4J2-422.
----------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.0-rc1

This issue is fixed with r1565838. However, the fix does not actually fix the {{<DriverManager...>}} connection source plugin—it removes it. This plugin is not safe and can't use a connection pool. Starting with rc1 you will need to either use the {{<DataSource...>}} or {{<ConnectionFactory...>}} connection source plugins, instead, and they should be backed with a connection pool. The updated site documentation will explain this further once rc1 is released.

> I had a situation where the DriverManager was unable to properly load the jdbc driver (Oracle) via url resolution alone.  The DriverManager doesnt' currently allow you to explicitly specify the the driver.  I resolved my situation by creating my own that accepts a driver parameter, but it seems like this should be added to the core
