The Apache Log4j Transformation Tools 0.1.0 release is now available for voting.
This is the first release and it contains two modules: * [LOG4J2-3638]: Adds a bytecode transformation tool to provide location information without reflection. * [LOG4J2-673]: Adds a resource transformer for the Maven Shade Plugin to merge `Log4j2Plugins.dat` plugin caches. Thanks to Eduard Gizatullin. Changes between RC2 and RC3: * The `log4j-transform-maven-plugin` has a `includes/excludes` setting now (useful for benchmark testing), * There is a `log4j-transform-perf` module (not in the main reactor for a chicken and egg problem), * The release was fully automated (hence the 0.1.0-rc1 tag instead of 0.1.0-rc3 tag due to some differences between my bash and Github), * The source archive does not have Git and Github-related stuff (thanks Gary).
