conversion word %ex length handling is off by one
-------------------------------------------------
Key: LBCORE-179
URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-179
Project: logback-core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Pattern
Affects Versions: 0.9.26
Reporter: Michael Osipov
Assignee: Logback dev list
The %ex and %xEx define a stack trace length. The integer spec is somewhat
faulty and misleading. First of all this is a stack trace depth imho and not
length. Anyway, I was poking around with the SMTPAppender and wanted to include
the sole exception message into the subject. The outcome was:
1. The docs do not define a valid interval for the integer value. You can only
deduce from logic.
2. I defined %ex{short} and it included 2 lines of the stack trace.
3. I defined %ex{2} and it included 3 lines of the stack trace.
4. I defined %ex{0} and it included 1 line of the stack trace.
5. Defining any negative number omits the stack trace. But it does not make
sense at all to have a negative stack trace depth.
I checked also the source of the
[https://github.com/ceki/logback/blob/master/logback-classic/src/main/java/ch/qos/logback/classic/pattern/ThrowableProxyConverter.java
converter], the lines 54 and 58 cause the problem.
