Roberto Tyley created LOGBACK-1436: -------------------------------------- Summary: There is no way to know how many events are discarded by AsyncAppender Key: LOGBACK-1436 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/LOGBACK-1436 Project: logback Issue Type: Improvement Components: logback-classic Affects Versions: 1.2.3 Reporter: Roberto Tyley Assignee: Logback dev list ch.qos.logback.classic.AsyncAppender's append() method will discard events if both isQueueBelowDiscardingThreshold() and isDiscardable(eventObject) are true, which is reasonable and documented behaviour, but there is no way for the user to track the level at which this is occurring. It's not easy to address this problem by extending AsyncAppender, as isQueueBelowDiscardingThreshold() is private and depends on private values. Making isQueueBelowDiscardingThreshold() protected rather than private would help here, or alternatively directly building-in some kind of counter of discarded events would be another way. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.3.1#73012)
