The Apache Log4j 2 team is pleased to announce the Log4j 2.0.1 release!
Apache log4j is a well known framework for logging application behavior.
Log4j 2 is an upgrade to
Log4j that provides significant improvements over its predecessor, Log4j
1.x, and provides
many of the improvements available in Logback while fixing some inherent
problems in Logback's
architecture.
This is the first patch release of Log4j 2.0 which contains numerous bug
fixes. Version 2.0.1 is available now!
Changes in this version include:
New features:
o LOG4J2-725: Added WebLoggerContextUtils class to log4j-web for helper
methods useful for asynchronous servlets.
o LOG4J2-710: Added documentation for Custom Levels and Custom Loggers.
Fixed Bugs:
o LOG4J2-744: Avoid unnecessary Clock calls when TimestampMessage is
logged. Thanks to Scott Harrington.
o LOG4J2-704: Improved error message if configuration file not found.
o LOG4J2-750: Webapp configuration page has incorrect class name. Thanks
to Mike Calmus.
o LOG4J2-749: Retain the default date pattern after fixing the ISO8601
pattern. Thanks to Scott Harrington.
o LOG4J2-670: DatePatternConverter ISO8601_PATTERN now conforms to
ISO8601.
o LOG4J2-741: Reinstate the package configuration attribute for
discovering custom plugins.
o LOG4J2-742: XInclude not working with relative path. Thanks to Pascal
Chollet.
o LOG4J2-740: Fixed typo in webapp manual regarding sample web.xml file.
Thanks to Kosta Krauth.
o LOG4J2-738: RollingFileManager deadlock if async action thread fails to
start. Thanks to Timothy Stack.
o LOG4J2-736: Fixed log4j-bom so that it won't specify a default scope on
any third party dependencies.
o LOG4J2-735: Fixed log4j-bom so that it won't interfere with spring-bom
and others.
o LOG4J2-731: Updated documentation regarding extensions to
LoggerContextFactory and Log4j 2 providers.
o LOG4J2-373: Fixed ClassLoader issues in loading Log4j providers in an
OSGi environment.
o LOG4J2-719: Correctly handle NetworkOnMainThreadException thrown on
Android during Log4j2 initialization.
o LOG4J2-716: Automatically disable log4j JMX when detecting we are
running on Android.
o LOG4J2-657: Fixed AbstractDatabaseManager to close connection on
writeInternal error. Thanks to Stefan Wehner.
o LOG4J2-713: Android: java.lang.VerifyError:
org/apache/logging/log4j/core/util/Closer Thanks to Nelson Melina.
o LOG4J2-703: Android: Could not find class 'javax.naming.InitialContext',
referenced from method
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.lookup.JndiLookup.lookup. Thanks to Nelson
Melina.
Apache Log4j 2.0.1 requires a minimum of Java 6 to build and run. Basic
compatibility with
Log4j 1.x is provided through the log4j-1.2-api component, however it does
not implement some of the
very implementation specific classes and methods. The package names and
Maven groupId have been changed to
org.apache.logging.log4j to avoid any conflicts with log4j 1.x.
For complete information on Apache Log4j 2, including instructions on how
to submit bug reports,
patches, or suggestions for improvement, see the Apache Apache Log4j 2
