> Key: WICKET-3919
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-3919
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wicket-core
> Affects Versions: 1.5-RC5.1
> Reporter: Martijn Dashorst
> Assignee: Martin Grigorov
> Attachments: JsonAndImprovedRequestLogger.txt, RequestLoggerTest.java

>
> The current (default) request logger generates logs that are not parsable by
> automated tools. The identifiers and values give many collisions with
> keywords, making it impossible to create an efficient ANTLR parser/lexer for
> it.
> A couple of observations:
> - the log is not parsable due to inconsistent logging of log parts. For
> example [ResourceStreamRequestTarget[[]] generates an unbalanced number of
> brackets
> - some parts are joined by ',' and others are joined by ', ' (notice the
> extra whitespace)
> - it is not possible to retrieve parts of the logs because keywords,
> identifiers and values share the same namespace. A page parameter with name
> 'event' would choke a LL(x) parser since the lexer will render a keyword
> instead of a value
> Possible solutions:
> - fix the current format to become consistent and parsable, by surrounding
> identifiers and values with single quotes and escaping single quotes inside
> the identifiers and values, and fixing other issues
> - render JSON instead of the current format (in my opinion best done in a
> separate JSonRequestLogger)
> - ???
