configuration: property: detect circular references --------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCLASSIC-210 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-210 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: Improvement Components: joran Affects Versions: 0.9.21 Reporter: Cristian Vasile Mocanu Assignee: Logback dev list In case I have cycles in properties, I get an unfriendly StackOverflowError in OptionHelper. I am referring to properties like this: {code} a=${b} b=${a} {code} It would be nice to detect these cases and show a nice error message explaining the actual problem, instead of StackOverflowError. For inspiration, you can take a look at Spring's PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer (the actual place where they detect this is org.springframework.util.PropertyPlaceholderHelper#parseStringValue in version 3.0.1.RELEASE). -- 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
