------------------------------
Summary: Improve ability to parse vcld.log
Key: VCL-707
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-707
Project: VCL
Issue Type: Bug
Components: vcld (backend)
Reporter: Andy Kurth
Assignee: Andy Kurth
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.4
The lines in vcld.log are deliminated by a '|' pipe character. This makes is
easy to split up the lines with grep or when imported into a spreadsheed.
There are some problems with the current vcld.log output which causes fields to
not appear in the same column in excel if you do a Text to Columns with the '|'
deliminator.
For multiline messages, the date and calling sub are only written to the first
line to reduce the log size:
2013-06-06 13:03:58|24316|2375:3115|test|utils.pm:mysub(4500)|:first line
|24316|2375:3115|test| : 2nd line
When split up in Excel, the '2nd line' text will be placed under the 'utils.pm'
field becuase there is an extra '|' deliminator in the first line.
If you try to analyze the occurances of lines generated by a particular
subroutine, you have to take an extra step of ignoring the line number. It
would be helpful if the line number were deliminated by '|'.
