Dominik Psenner updated LOG4J2-2010: ------------------------------------ Description: Class paths are currently split into a hierarchy of loggers. Private classes however are subclassed into their containing class with a dollar sign ($) which is currently not reflected as an entry in the logger hierarchy. It has been discussed to allow the customization of the logger hierarchy calculation strategy. By default the default implementation of the hierarchy calculations strategy should split a class path by a dot (.). It should further allow splitting by other common separators like a dollar and a slash ($ and /) to accomodate more use cases. It should also be possible to split by multiple separator characters at the same time, meaning that the logger hierarchy could be split by either a dot, a dollar or a slash or arbitrary other characters as well. It is yet to be discussed whether we the user should be able to provide a custom implementatino of the hierarchy calculation strategy. was: Class paths are currently split into a hierarchy of loggers.
