-------------------------------------------------------------
Out of curiosity, what does the application expect to happen when they log
$\{date:now:buhu}\? How is camel expecting to do anything with this message?
Is it being routed into camel somehow?

> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Lookups
> Reporter: moritz löser
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: date, lookup
>
> (see
> [here|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27103400/log4j2-how-to-disable-date-lookup-log4j-throws-exception]
> for some details )
> At the moment it is not possible to log stuff like this:
> {noformat}
> log.info("${date:now:buhu}");
> {noformat}
> ("ERROR Invalid date format: "now:yyyyMMdd-HHmmss", using default
> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal pattern character 'n'")
> Because log4j2 tries to change the logged output - want to substitute a date.
> This is intransparently limiting the logging.
> nobody knows what kind of strings are allowed and what kind of strings will
> be interpreted by log4j2. But it becomes worse if you use slf4j and switch
> the logger implementation to log4j2 - it could happen that just switching
> breaks your code.
> This is a *real issue* if you use libraries like *apache camel* because camel
> itself uses strings like {noformat}${date:now:YYYY...}{noformat} to
> substitute stuff like file names. see http://camel.apache.org/simple.html
> At the moment camel is logging this stuff on debug (sometime i need it to see
> if i correctly set up camel) so it is no production issue here. But what
> about other libraries or the future?
> The only way i see is a switch to disable all kinds of lookups and it should
> probably off by default.
