Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-555:
------------------------------------
Thanks for the overview. It is helpful to not only know what you are doing but
also why you are doing it.
Thanks also for running the performance test. These numbers tend to vary
between runs, and I suspect the difference between before and after is not
significant. (Meaning that your changes did not make performance worse. :-) )
Some platforms are more consistent than others, but for example on my Windows
laptop I see large differences between runs. What OS & hardware (cpu, #cores)
did you use?
I should update the performance test to print only throughput with standard
deviation and omit the (useless) latency numbers. The same test framework also
has a latency-only test mode but currently processing/pretty-printing those
results is not automated yet.
A final note on performance testing: I've started to look at
[JMH|http://openjdk.java.net/projects/code-tools/jmh/] for benchmarking log4j
performance. Looks promising.

> Key: LOG4J2-555
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-555
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: API, Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0-rc1
> Reporter: Remko Popma
> Assignee: Remko Popma
> Fix For: 2.0-rc2
>
> Attachments: LOG4J2-555-delegate.patch, log4j2-555-bbrouwer-2.patch,

> *How to reproduce*
> * Create a custom logger that extends {{AbstractLoggerWrapper}} (or generate
> one with the tool attached to LOG4J2-519)
> * In the custom logger provide a public method that invokes the {{log(Level,
> String)}} method
> * Configure a pattern layout that uses location, like %C for the logger FQCN
> * From a sample app, call the public method on your custom logger.
> * The output will show the class name of the custom logger instead of the
> class name of the calling class in the sample application.
> *Cause*
> {{AbstractLogger}}'s FQCN field is {{static final}} and initialized to
> {{AbstractLogger.class.getName()}}. Then, in
> {{Log4jLogEvent#calcLocation()}}, when walking over the stack trace elements,
> the element _following_ the FQCN is returned. So only loggers that directly
> subclass from {{AbstractLogger}} will work correctly. Loggers that inherit
> from {{AbstractLoggerWrapper}} are two levels removed from {{AbstractLogger}}
> and the {{calcLocation()}} method will not work correctly.
> *Solution*
> I think {{AbstractLogger}}'s FQCN field should be made non-static, and
> initialized to {{getClass().getName()}} in the constructor of
> {{AbstractLogger}}. {{Log4jLogEvent#calcLocation()}} can then be modified to
> return the {{StackElement}} whose class name matches the FQCN, instead of the
> next element. Location-based functionality should then work for arbitrarily
> deep subclass hierarchies of AbstractLogger.
