Description

Need help from migrating log4j to log4j2. I have a rollingFileAppender. I need this appender to make use of "StatisticsCsvLayout" in org.perf4j. Previously in log4j 1.x version we used to directly refer the StatisticsCsvLayout from any appender using following tag in log4j.xml.

<Layout class="org.perf4j.log4j.StatisticsCsvLayout"/>
We are unable to confire this from log4j2.xml as there is no provision to make use of external layouts directly. Please tell me how to configure this in log4j2.xml.
