Assignee: Logback dev list
Components: logback-core

Description: It would be helpful to be able to abbreviate thread names for the same reasons that we like to abbreviate logger names.

Whereas logger{x} splits on "." or "$", thread{x} would at least split on "-". E.g.,

Conversion Specifier Thread name Result
%thread http-nio-8080-exec-15 http-nio-8080-exec-15
%thread{0} http-nio-8080-exec-15 15
%thread{1} http-nio-8080-exec-15 h-n-8-e-15
%thread{5} http-nio-8080-exec-15 http-nio-8080-exec-15


With respect to splitting on "-", I have also seen thread names that look like:

  ajp-bio-/127.0.0.1-8009-exec-10

This would not split nicely on ".".
