Matt Sicker commented on LOG4J2-1013: ------------------------------------- I can't figure out how to write a backslash on jira, but just allowing backslashes as escape characters inside the lookup would go a long way. I'm not even sure if you can embed a new line or similar things using escape sequences currently, so this could also open up support for that as well. > Log4j2 Main Arguments Lookup by name doesn't work > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-1013 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1013 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: API, Core, Lookups > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Environment: Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and Java 8U31 x64.
