-------------------------------------
Summary: Consistent validation exceptions
Key: LOG4J2-2443
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2443
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Log4j-Audit
Affects Versions: Log4j-Audit 1.0.0
Reporter: Andrei Ivanov
Trying to create an {{ExceptionMapper}} for the validation exceptions I notice
that there are 2 kind of exceptions that are thrown when logging.
{{AbstractEventLogger}} mostly throws {{AuditException}}, but there's even a
{{IllegalStateException}} thrown, that probably can be changed to an
{{AuditException}}.
But then there's {{LogEventFactory}} that throws
{{ConstraintValidationException}} for validation errors.
I then thought there's an exception hierarchy in place, but it seems there's no
relation between {{AuditException}} and {{ConstraintValidationException}}.
Please consider making {{AbstractEventLogger}} also throw
{{ConstraintValidationException}} and maybe create some hierarchy for these
exceptions to provide them a common base exception, perhaps {{AuditException}}.
