Romain Manni-Bucau commented on LOG4J2-1650: -------------------------------------------- [~garydgregory]this is what i did yesterday and i dont see a way to achieve it with current design which is fat. Could 3.0 throw away plugin and builder desigbs/patterns? If not i guess it is time lost :( > log4j2-core diet > ---------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-1650 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1650 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Romain Manni-Bucau > Priority: Major > > Hello, > log4j2 is ~1.3M. It is a lot to get started with logging and several parts > are not mandatory to start and rarely needed all together like jackson, db, > yaml (this one is not that big) etc...Also saw Generate class which is quite > big but not sure it is needed at runtime and the annotation processor logic > is never needed at runtime. > Anyway, by comparison logback and log4j1 are ~500k so hopefully we could only > pay the same price to get started with log4j2. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
