-----------------------------------
Summary: Add RepeatPatternConverter
Key: LOG4J2-3044
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3044
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Pattern Converters
Affects Versions: 2.14.1
Reporter: Ralph Goers
Assignee: Ralph Goers
Fix For: 2.15.0
It is frequently desirable to add strings of repeating characters to a logging
event to highlight it when viewing the log. To do this currently you have to
manually type in the characters into the pattern which can make the pattern
fairly long. This will add a pattern converter that can be specified as
R\{#}{10}, which is considerably easier for the user than having to include
########## especially if it appears twice in the message.
