Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-2944:
-------------------------------------
This issue is quite old and the stackoverflow articles reference Log4j 1.x yet
the Jira issue lists 2.14.0 and 2.13.3. To be honest, I have no idea what the
reported problem is.
> Add support for copying one appender to another.

> Key: LOG4J2-2944
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2944
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: 2.14.0, 2.13.3
> Reporter: Srinivas
> Priority: Critical
>
> * Currently the copying of one appender to another in the log4j.properties
> file is not supported.
> * One can copy the properties by referencing them like so
> ${log4j.appender.INFOLOGGER}
> * However each property will have to be referenced like so and copied to the
> corresponding one in the new appender.
> * We need to have a operation like so: log4j.appender.newone =
> ^log4j.appender.oldone which copies all existing properties of the old
> appender.
