>                 Key: LOG4J2-1099
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1099
>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Layouts
>    Affects Versions: 2.3
>            Reporter: Louis Burton

> {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.layout.AbstractLayout}} line 34 :
> {code}
>     // TODO: Charset is not serializable. Implement read/writeObject() ?
>     private final Charset charset;
> {code}
> The developer has recognised that this class claims to be serializable, but is not actually serializable.
> This actually has wide impact due to the fact that the Logger is holding onto the Layout via the {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.Logger.PrivateConfig#config}} (XML in my case). Many projects, including Spring, do not use static Loggers and prefer getClass type approaches off of their abstract classes, i.e.:
> {code}
> protected final Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());
> {code} 
> This actually can lead to use of spring session beans, which are serialized with the session, trying to serialize the logger also and failing due to this bug.
