<div class="paragraph">
<p>This release primarily contains bug fixes and minor enhancements.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Due to a break in compatibility in the SLF4J binding, Log4j now ships with two versions of the SLF4J to Log4j adapters.
<code>log4j-slf4j-impl</code> should be used with SLF4J 1.7.x and earlier and <code>log4j-slf4j18-impl</code> should be used with SLF4J 1.8.x and later.
SLF4J-2.0.0 alpha releases are not fully supported.
See <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2975">LOG4J2-2975</a> and <a href="https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-511">SLF4J-511</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The Log4j 2.19.0 API, as well as many core components, maintains binary compatibility with previous releases.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Apache Log4j 2.19.0 requires a minimum of Java 8 to build and run.
Log4j 2.12.4 is the last release to support Java 7.
Log4j 2.3.2 is the last release to support Java 6.
Java 6 and Java 7 are no longer supported by the Log4j team.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For complete information on Apache Log4j 2, including instructions on how to submit bug reports, patches, or suggestions for improvement, see <a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/">the Apache Log4j 2 website</a>.</p>
