Matt Sicker commented on LOG4J2-1651:
-------------------------------------
The properties file format you added looks rather interesting. It's not much
larger than the equivalent dat file I'd imagine, and the jar format includes
compression that would help reduce the redundancies anyway.
For any textual file, they could also be gzipped through the java.util.zip API
if really needed, too.
> Makes the dat format more user friendly

> The dat format used by the plugin is not that friendly when users want to
> shade log4j2 and manual manipulation is hard and require some advanced shade
> ability (concretely you need to write your own PluginCache serialization if
> you select a subpart of log4j2 to go in your shade)
> Would be great to provide an easier and smoother way to do that.
