Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-235:
------------------------------------

These are *compile* time dependencies (to build the log4j binaries), not 
runtime dependencies. Once you have the log4j jar files you should not need 
tools.jar or jconsole.jar to compile your project. At least I think not, I 
don't have much maven experience.

Jconsole classes in core are only used when running the JMX gui as a JConsole 
plugin.

I can remove the dependency on tools.jar from core/pom.xml, that was probably a 
mistake on my part anyway.

> Hello,
> when switching from 2.0-beta4 to 2.0-beta5 I something irritating that in the 
> dependency hierarchy of my project. For log4j2-core there were transitive 
> dependencies on tools.jar and jsconsole which had not been there.
> This looks like a bug and an as a consequence requires a JDK instead of  a 
> JRE (at least due to the tools.jar which does not exist in Java 1.6 JRE). If 
> these dependencies are really required, it should be clearly stated.
