Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-952: ------------------------------------ Sure. I can create a branch for this. I should have most of this weekend free as my wife is out of town and I was planning on addressing your comments then. I don't know if I would be able to do a release build at the same time. And I still have to finish the few final tasks on FastDateFormat. > FAQ: How do I configure log4j2 programmatically in code without a > configuration file? > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-952 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-952 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: API, Configurators, Documentation > Affects Versions: 2.1 > Reporter: Joe Merten > Attachments: LOG4J2-952-2.patch, LOG4J2-952-3.patch, > LOG4J2-952-4.patch, LOG4J2-952.patch > > > I found [this > link|http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/faq.html#config_from_code] which > said: > {quote} > You could use the static method #initialize(String contextName, ClassLoader > loader, String configLocation) in > org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.Configurator.
