Ralph Goers resolved LOG4J2-2484.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Sorry for not joining in earlier. I could have saved all of this back and forth.
What you are requesting has been implemented for years. Specify dest="out" on
your configuration element at the out put will go to STDOUT. Specify
dest"file:///var/log/log4j.log" or dest="/var/log/log4j.log" and you can route
it to a file. See
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/configuration.html#ConfigurationSyntax
> Allow setting of output stream on StatusLogger
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-2484
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2484
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Robert Ross
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: StatusLogger, debugging
>
> The StatusLogger internally uses a SimpleLogger. SimpleLogger offers the
> ability to control the output stream, but StatusLogger encapsulates and hides
> this capability, always using System.err as the output stream.
> It would be useful to expose this option so that the API offers some control
> over the output stream used by StatusLogger.
