Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-219: ------------------------------------ >From the dev mailing list: ..., then to summarize my understanding for LOG4J2-219 the solution would be to: * internally create a root logger if one isn't explicitly configured (like in beta5) * this default root logger would have level ERROR (like in beta5) * this default root logger would not have any appenders configured (different from beta5) * named loggers in the config are picked up correctly and not ignored (different from beta5) > Named logger without root logger ends up with empty Appenders map - does not > log anything > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-219 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-219 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta5 > Reporter: Remko Popma > > On the log4j-user mailing list, Peter DePasquale gave this test case that > demonstrates the problem: > Note that the configuration has no root logger, but only contains a named > logger. > In a debugger I found that the LoggerConfig for "logtest.LogTest" ended up > with an empty "appenders" Map<String, AppenderControl<?>>.
