      • createDaemonThreadFactory

        public static Log4jThreadFactory createDaemonThreadFactory​(java.lang.String threadFactoryName)
        Creates a new daemon thread factory.

      • createThreadFactory

        public static Log4jThreadFactory createThreadFactory​(java.lang.String threadFactoryName)
        Creates a new thread factory. This is mainly used for tests. Production code should be very careful with creating non-daemon threads since those will block application shutdown (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1748).
        Parameters:
        threadFactoryName - The thread factory name.
        Returns:
        a new daemon thread factory.
