LOG4J2-3044 - Add RepeatPatternConverter
> 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
> Priority: Major
> 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.
