Filtering out selected stack trace frames ----------------------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-325 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-325 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: New Feature Components: appender, layout Reporter: Tomasz Nurkiewicz Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Minor Many frameworks and libraries like Spring or EJB are introducing hundreds of synthetic method invocations (AOP, dynamic proxies, CGLIB-generated classes, etc.) They are irrelevant for most of the time and only cluttering the stack traces printed by Logback. It would be nice to have possibility to filter (possibly by providing a set of patterns in logback.xml) each stack trace line and skip selected ones. Similar feature is implemented in some IDEs, see: http://blogs.jetbrains.com/idea/2010/07/console-folding-customization. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

[JIRA] Created: (LBCORE-171) Can't use logback on GAE SDK 1.3.7 when configured with logback.xml

Can't use logback on GAE SDK 1.3.7 when configured with logback.xml ------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-171 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-171 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.9.24 Environment: GAE/J 1.3.7 Reporter: Maxim Veksler Assignee: Logback dev list Trying to initialize logback with custom configuration file (logback.xml) running on GAE platform throws the following exception Failed to instantiate [ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext] Reported exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.net.InetAddress is a restricted class.

This happens because ch.qos.logback.core.util.ContextUtil.java contains are reference to a java.net.InetAddress which is a restricted class on Google AppEngine Platform SDK 1.3.7: static String getLocalHostName() throws UnknownHostException { InetAddress localhost = InetAddress.getLocalHost(); return localhost.getHostName(); } I should note that BasicConfigurator is working and is able to configure the logback subsystem. A couple of resolutions I can think of: 1. Don't export this parameter by default, instead let the user choose if to define it or not in the logback.xml configuration file. 2. Create a "GAEConfigurator" which will use default for the limited GAE environment. 2. Provide a custom build for GAE platform, where this parameter will be taken from http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/javadoc/com/google/appengine/api… or not be defined at all. 4. Provide some method to override / use a different implementation of ContextUtil, one which will be suitable for GAE. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

Print configuration errors to stderr ------------------------------------ Key: LBCORE-209 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-209 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Improvement Components: Other Affects Versions: 0.9.28 Reporter: atomicknight Assignee: Logback dev list In org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder#init(), any detected configuration errors are passed to StatusPrinter to be printed. However, the default PrintStream used by StatusPrinter is stdout, which can interfere with the output of command-line based Java programs that are used in the same fashion as applications such as ls or grep. Would it be possible to modify this behavior such that configuration errors are printed to stderr instead? A potential solution would be to overload StatusPrinter#printInCaseofErrorsOrWarning and StatusPrinter#printIfErrorsOccurred with versions that also take a PrintStream as an argument - this would allow classes like StaticLoggerBinder to specify the appropriate output stream without overriding the global state in StatusPrinter. Alternatively, an additional setting in the XML configuration might work just as well. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

SiftingAppender - Timeout for closing unused appenders should be configurable ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: LBCORE-247 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-247 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Improvement Components: Appender Affects Versions: 1.0.0 Reporter: Tommy Becker Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Minor We are using SiftingAppender to direct logs for each job in our application to a separate file. These files are typically only written to a few times in pretty quick succession and then they're done. While the appender works well, we have found that we are creating jobs at a faster rate than it closes the sub-appenders, causing us to eventually run out of file descriptors. I know about AppenderTracker and will implement a solution using this, but this feels like this timeout value is something that should be configurable on the SiftingAppender. Or maybe just some kind of boolean to tell it to close sub-appenders more aggressively. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

Syslog messages over 64K are discarded -------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-228 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-228 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Components: Appender Affects Versions: 0.9.30 Reporter: Pasi Eronen Assignee: Logback dev list SyslogAppenderBase truncates very long messages to 256k, which is not very useful limit, since SyslogOutputStream supports only UDP, which has maximum message size of 64k. Messages over 64k result in "java.io.IOException: Message too long" (from DatagramSocket.send, called from SyslogOutputStream.flush), but this exception is visible only in logger context status... Proposed fix: truncate long messages instead of discarding them. More specifically, change MSG_SIZE_LIMIT in SyslogAppenderBase to 65000. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
