--- Comment #29 from Guido Jäkel <g.jae...@dnb.de> --- Oh, let's clarify: In case of splitting the log lines, should we use the continuation symbol for A) all lines but the last (>,>,>,+) B) all lines but the first (+,>,>,>) The first give a forward promise and therefore it's reliable to process by the consumer. But is a breaking change in semantics concerning the "start of request". However, in case of the issue strikes at the moment, syntax and semantic are much more broken. The second will not break historic semantics "most of the time". But it's more difficult to consume, because one will modify received information retrospectively. And this without a final mark; this might break the promise of "forensic logging". In this case, maybe we need a "final slice identifier" over and beyond. Which lead to C) Use a continuation and finality symbol (+,>,>,.) I vote for A) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: bugs-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: bugs-h...@httpd.apache.org
