The following configuration parameters are supported by this filter: * {{maxSessionIdLength}} - limiting the HTTP session id length to a certain value, e.g. for WebLogic this could be 52 (default: -1 [unlimited]) To use this filter add the following lines to the {{web.xml file}}: <code> <filter> <filter-name>RequestLogFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>ch.qos.logback.classic.RequestLogFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>maxSessionIdLength</param-name> <param-value>52</param-value> </init-param> </filter><br> : <filter-mapping> <filter-name>RequestLogFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> <code> An SLF4 Logger named {{ch.qos.logback.classic.RequestLogFilter}} is used to log the start end end of calling the filter chain. This information should go into a separate log file. -- 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
