message implicit variable should have a more detailed documentation and usage for the EvaluatorFilter ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-103 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-103 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Improvement Components: Appender Affects Versions: 0.9.15 Environment: Windows XP, Java 1.5 Sun JVM, Tomcat 5.0.27 Reporter: Johan Bos Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Trivial I was expecting "message" implicit variable to contain the full message rendered by the %message or %msg from the pattern, but the recommanded way of logging, using LOG.debug("I want to log an object {}", object); is only formatted in the event.getFormattedMessage(), event.getMessage <=> message, but only contains the "I want to log an object {}" so if my matching string for the expression setting for the EvaluatorFilter is the dynamical part I can't never match my string, instead it got "{}". So, it would be less confusing for users to find in the documentation an explicit information on what message variable contains, and does not contain! Thank you I would be happy to explain my point if you find it unclear or irrelevant. -- 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
