Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-241: ------------------------------------ Since PatternLayout started from extras I wondered why it isn't already there. Then I noticed that FormattingInfo in the link above says right truncation was added in 1.2.17, which is very recent. > Support the ability to trim logger name from the right. > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-241 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-241 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta6 > Reporter: Kurt Lehrke > Priority: Minor > > In log4j2, there doesn't seem to be a way to trim the logger name from the > right. I have a situation where our logger names can be extremely large, > even when only using the class name. We'd like to trim it down to a certain > number of characters (e.g. 10). When reading trace files, the 10 beginning > characters would be more unique than the last 10 characters. This would be > extremely useful for us to be able to do in the configuration file in the > pattern layout. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
