Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-124:
------------------------------------

I see, you don't want this method in the LoggerContext interface, good point. 

How about adding a new interface to the SPI package? This interface has only one method, {{void shutdown()}}. The interface could be called, for example, IShutdown. 
The implementation then would look like this:

{code}
// LogManager
public static void shutdown() {
  LoggerContext context = getContext();
  if (context instanceof IShutdown) {
    ((IShutdown) context).shutdown();
  }
}
{code}

> I'm trying to gracefully close my SocketAppender before exiting the my application to avoid IOExceptions on the socket server side.  
> Currently I can make it only by using interface the org.apache.logging.log4j.core.Lifecycle interface in the Log4j2 core  : 
> ((Lifecycle) LogManager.getContext()).stop();
> I would prefer to have a cleaner solution that uses solely the Log4j-api not Log4j-core. 
> Did I overlook something or stop() on the API side really missing ?
