Description

As per the documentation, log4j2 should compile with Maven 2 and Maven 3

Log4j 2.x uses Maven 2 or 3 as its build tool. To build and install Log4j in your local Maven cache, from the root directory run:

However, the Maven performance test uses a Maven 3 only plugin:

[INFO] Building Apache Log4J Performance Tests
[INFO]    task-segment: [clean, install]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Error resolving version for 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-shade-plugin': Plugin requires Maven version 3.0
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other than that, it compliles without any issues, though I'm not sure if it would be correct to still state that it can be built with Maven 2 ?
