Gary Gregory commented on LOG4J2-908:
-------------------------------------
We have two issues here:
The first, which appears simple, is that the footer is never written. The
JsonLayout class knows to write an ending ']' but its {{getFooter()}} method
must be called by Log4j. This would only happen when the appender is closed,
probably when log4j shutsdown.
The second problem is more problematic, we do not have the notion of a log
event separator. We have header and footer of course. This is not a problem for
the XML layout of course since there is no such thing as a collection separator
in XML.
This will need a bit of thinking and fiddling.
Always writing a ',' will not work since you cannot have a dangling ',' in JSON.
