Greg Thomas commented on LBCLASSIC-169:
---------------------------------------

I'm not so much interested in table/column names, but what I would like to see 
is the ability to record the individual values for the placeholders in the log 
message. 

If you're logging to a database, there's the possibility of running report on 
that database. Instead of having to parse out the data from the re-combined log 
message (e.g. "New call made; now 4 calls active"), it would be easier to 
record the value of arguments directly in the database. e.g. if you've 
configured it so that the first argument is stored in column arg1, and the 
second is stored in arg2, then the log entry 

logger.info( "New call made; now {} calls active", activeCallCount );

could appear in the database as (ignoring the other columns for this example) 
...

formatted_message: "New call made; now 4 calls active"
arg1: "4"
arg2: null

>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: appender
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.18

> ch.qos.logback.classic.db.DBAppender uses hard-coded table names for logging 
> events: logging_event, logging_event_property and logging_event_exception. 
> Allowing to change these default names has two benefits:
> * There are systems where database table names must follow some naming 
> conventions (prefixes, using underscores vs. camel case)
> * One could create several Db appenders, each operating on different set of 
> tables (for performance reasons or more fine grained logging and filtering)
> Each table name would be configured using a property in logback.xml. Default 
> values for table names would be the same as present ones to maintain backward 
> compatibility. If you are interested in this feature let me know, I can 
> implement it and provide a patch.
