[logback-user] Incorrect thread name in plugin console

6 Mar 2009

      Hi everybody, 

I am using the eclipse logback console but found that [%thread] gives me 
the wrong thread name.  It shows something like [Thread-70] rather than 
the real thread name in my application.  Here is the logging statement 

private static final Logger logger = 
LoggerFactory.getLogger(TestView.class); 

.... 
logger.error("testing test ing"); 
.... 

I noticed there is a code in the 
ch.qos.logback.eclipse.reciever.SocketNode (line 59), which I copied here. 

try { 
   while (true) { 
     // read an event from the wire 
     event = (LoggingEvent) ois.readObject(); 
   // trick to keep the original thread name 
     event.getThreadName(); 

     // add it to the manager's LoggingEvent list 
     LoggingEventManager.getManager().addLoggingEvent(event); 
   } 

The comment said it is a trick to keep the original thread name.  It 
seems not working anymore, is it?  Or, am I missing something? 

Also, I have fired a bug here http://jira.qos.ch/browse/CONSPLUG-18 

Thanks a lot
