             Summary: LogBuilder multi-parameter overloads
                 Key: LOG4J2-2768
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2768
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: API
    Affects Versions: 2.13.0
            Reporter: Marius Volkhart


The new {{LogBuilder}} interface provides a single {{log(String format, 
Object... params)}} method for creating formatted messages from a {{String}}. 
The {{Logger}} methods {{info}}, {{debug}}, etc all had overloads like 
{{debug(String format, Object p0)}}, {{debug(String format, Object p0, Object 
p1)}}, etc. This avoided allocating an {{Object[]}} before knowing whether or 
not the message is going to be logged.

Were these overloads intentionally omitted from the {{LogBuilder}} API? Is 
there a new/better way to avoid the {{Object[]}} allocation, or do newer JVMs 
perhaps not require this anymore? 

If not, I'd like to request the overloads be added to the {{LogBuilder}} API, 
and would be happy to submit a PR to do so.
