Hi Chris, Not yet - I was hoping there was an off-the-shelf solution that would just allow me to pass through a byte[]? Maybe log.info("{}", byte[]) would work fine with this ? I thought the second argument was getting cast to a string, but maybe not. If not it looks like writing my own encoder is the way to go. I'll take a peak at the interface and see what I can put together. Ceki Gulcu wrote:
Hi Dave,
A logback encoder is fundamentally binary beast. It writes to an OutputStream. Have you considered rolling your own Encoder to deal with protobuf data?

Thanks Chris,
That looks like it might work what additional overhead does Anodyzed Onyx add to the log call? My system is processing quite a high volume of traffic, so I wan't to avoid any performance costs.
In my case I don't need to mix readable text with the binary data - my output file should just be purely binary, so maybe there is a simpler solution ?

With the Anodyzed Onyx (http://code.google.com/p/anodyzed) wrapper around Logback you can use log.debug("Google Protocol Buffer\n{0,binary,dump}",myBuffer); to write a Hex Dump style entry in the logs. (*Chris*)

Hi,
I'd like to log google protocol buffers received by my server to a file, for later offline processing (the data is in a byte[]). This is something I only do in when a debug mode is enabled, but it is useful for diagnostics.
Ideally I'd like to use logback, but it doesn't seem to cater for binary data.
I saw this issue: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LOGBACK-232 which is marked as fix, and is a request for the same thing. But I can't figure out how to use this with a normal rolling file appender.
Does anyone have any examples of doing this?
Cheers
