Matt Sicker commented on LOG4J2-741: ------------------------------------ The documentation is updated in the trunk and will be fixed in 2.0.1. Can you not use javac and -proc:only on the class files that scalac creates? I'm not too familiar with the Scala tools, and googling hasn't really found anything useful in regard to annotation processing. > Reinstate the package attribute for discovering custom plugins > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-741 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-741 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 2.0, 2.0-rc2 > Reporter: Remko Popma > Assignee: Matt Sicker > Fix For: 2.0.1 > > Attachments: LOG4J2-741-patch.txt > > > Several people reported problems with their custom plugins no longer being > recognized by log4j2.
