Re: StatusLogger

Log4j2 logs Message objects. The object being logged is contained within the message. You would normally call getFormattedMessage() to get the message String if that is what you are after. Ralph > On Nov 30, 2015, at 7:10 AM, Nicholas Duane wrote: > > Is there a way within an

I'm not necessarily after the string. I'm trying to get the original object that was passed to one of the logging methods. It could have been a string or some complex object. Thanks, Nick > Subject: Re: StatusLogger > From: ralph.go...@dslextreme.com > Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2015 08:30:37 -0700 >

RE: StatusLogger

Is there a way within an appender to get the original object logged? In log4net we call LoggingEvent.MessageObject. In log4j2 it doesn't seem as straight forward. A LogEvent object has a getMessage() method but I assume that's some sort of wrapper around the object that was logged. We
