Martin Suska created SLF4J-482: ---------------------------------- Summary: Explicit parameter for throwable Key: SLF4J-482 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/SLF4J-482 Project: SLF4J Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 1.7.29 Environment: Spring Boot Java application with only: {code:java} <parent> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId> <version>2.2.2.RELEASE</version> </parent> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter</artifactId> </dependency> </dependencies> {code} in pom.xml Reporter: Martin Suska Assignee: SLF4J developers list Priority: Minor [This question|[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45054154/logger-format-and-throwable-slf...]] on StackOverflow led me here as I had very the same question. That behaviour is kind of hidden - not described in JavaDoc. I believe it would be good to have {code:java} error(format, throwable, parameters){code} alternative (as throwable cannot be the last), which can call the existing one internally. I created this improvement just to make it easier for developers. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.3.1#73012)
