That is interesting. We had an email earlier this week from someone who had a
log4j2.xml in a jar they couldn’t modify. He called that “EVIL.jar”. That said,
I could understand including a log4j2-mycomponent.xml that gets merged with the

Yes I have been using the composite config feature, it does help.
It would be nice to be able to configure the logging of a component in the
component itself, instead of having to add it in the initial logging
configuration of all the potential applications that might use it.
In particular if some

Hello,
I would like to have a piece of code use Log4J2 to log events in a CSV
format. So the appender and logger configuration are specific to this task.
The problem is that there are several JVMs that might invoke this task (not
at the same time though). Therefore I would think that each of thos
