----------------------------------

Int flag sounds like a better option. Doubt its a common use case. The int
let's you use all the options and is future compatible without having to
maintain parsing code and mappings.

Cheers,

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Filters
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-rc2

> RegexFilter is constructed with a pattern, but pattern does not support 
> multiline matches, so impossible for the filter to ever match a multiline msg.
> Should maybe provide a multline="x attribute whichi should default to true 
> and result in the patter being compiled as such:
> Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(".*line.*", Pattern.DOTALL);
> See attached UnitTest illustrating failure
