This is a request for a new logback feature. Not sure if this is the right place to post it. I'd love to see a new PatternLayout conversion specifier: %elapsed This would show the number of milliseconds elapsed since the last log statement. At the moment, the closest option is %relative, which shows the elapsed milliseconds since the layout was created. I like to log the start and end of different functions so I can see the performance of each. At the moment I have to calculate the elapsed time in every individual function and log it. It would be easier to have logback take care of this for me.

Hello Chris, It is actually quite easy to write your own converter with logback. See http://logback.qos.ch/manual/layouts.html#customConversionSpecifier for details. HTH, On 27/09/2010 7:50 PM, Chris wrote:
