Description

I am using async logger configuration with log4j2.contextSelector set to org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerContextSelector with a console appender. The application is run using exec. Application will spit out log lines and terminates gracefully. After upgrading to new release of log4j2 v2.10 (from 2.6) not all log lines are visible on the console. Looks like log lines are not flushed on application shutdown.
