Tim Tucker commented on LOG4J2-248:
-----------------------------------
It looks like more recent versions of Struts actually have the logic separated
out into its own class, loading in the following order of preference:
1. From Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()
2. From ClassLoaderUtil.class.getClassLoader()
3. From the callingClass.getClassLoader()

> Log4jContextListener: Use Thread instead of Class for fallback classloader
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: LOG4J2-248
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-248
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta5
> Reporter: Tim Tucker
> Priority: Minor
>
> I was experimenting with creating my own context listener based on
> Log4jContextListener and noticed that the call in getClassLoader to get the
> class's classloader was triggering a PMD warning.
> The rule's notes indicate that Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()
> might return more reliable results than Object.class.getClassLoader().
> The code in question is as follows:
> try {
> // if container is Servlet 3.0, use its getClassLoader method
> return
> (ClassLoader)context.getClass().getMethod("getClassLoader").invoke(context);
> } catch (Exception ignore) {
> // otherwise, use this class's class loader
> return Log4jContextListener.class.getClassLoader();
> }
